Inspiration Climb!
A downloadable Inspiration Climb for Windows and macOS
In this pixel platformer you will play as Cassandra Xavier, climbing up Inspiration mountain. An experienced top wall and bouldering climber, scaling the dangerous summit known as Inspiration Mountain. Between running, jumping, climbing, and navigating these dangerous steeps avoiding; falling, slipping, and crashing. will you be able to reach the top?
Cassandra for a long period of time struggled with a sense of identity, eventually discovering that fact that she was both autistic and has ADHD. It was a difficulty period of time in her life trying to figure out how to balance her work, school, and social life and the stresses that come with it. Eventually she was able to settle into these sudden revelations. A large portion of being able to accept and be one with this new identity was climbing. She is an avid climber and goes weekly to a climbing gym. At first this was merely a form of distraction and a chance to keep to herself. Now she has a genuine passion for climbing and attributes greatly toward her ability to get comfortable with her identity to climbing.
The game we intend to make is about metaphorically overcoming the struggles that Cassandra went through in order to discover herself while also including her passion for climbing. Players will get a sense of accomplishment achieving new heights and reading motivational quotes on signs and from animals as they scale this mountain to encourage the player (Cassandra) to keep going!
Cassandra Xavier is our hidden hero and we hope she can be yours too, Play Inspiration Climb now!
