Welcome to New Lux Plaza
(2018)
Project Notes
Welcome to New Lux Plaza is a vaporwave Star Fox 64 clone set in a shopping mall where you must earn "Luxbux" (the currency of the future) in order to afford to take your lover (a sentient stock market trading algorithm) on a nice date for once. Along the way, you must shoot your way through irate shoppers and pop-up ads, evade mall security, and return the Dolphin Queen's crown. Made in Unity with funding from the Toronto Arts Council and the Ontario Arts Council.
