Semblante Windows game

Here it is. This is the final version of Semblante, dubbed Semblante 3.0 or Anniversary Edition, since we wanted to release it at the eve of Global Game Jam 2011. Unfortunately we missed the deadline by a matter of hours (really) and decided to release this version of Semblante only after our work with Mnemons was done (and the SXSW contest tight deadline was clear).

What has changed? Well, basically everything. We put a good 3 weeks of work on this particular version of Semblante (before it, both 1.0 and 2.0 were 48h efforts). This means that the game is bigger and more polished all around, with navigable menus, volume control and some other stuff we usually take for granted like checkpoints and a pause screen. Also, we put a distinct personality in each of the game's shadows (and their own proper puzzle to retrieve them), revamped the game's graphics (especially Jung's animations) and redesigned the game's sound effects and music (courtesy of our friend Hermann Rauth). We're also able to finally put the game's original script to good use, putting some contextual, albeit obscure, text integrated within the game's backgrounds.
