Coffee Extra: Ukuzala

A group of friends find themselves stuck in an old house during a thunderstorm. They discover a strange fertility themed board game and decide to humor it. As the game goes on, they start experiencing nausea, fatigue, and other unusual symptoms. They laugh it off, until eventually one girl’s stomach visibly swells.
Separated from the rest of the world, their only option is to continue playing and hope things revert back to normal when someone wins.

In summary, a Jumanji inspiration, with a dark twist and a focus on pregnancy and fertility.

The story consists of 3 story routes, and a Free Play mode, which simulates a dynamic board game with character commentary. The demo has 1 route.
To unlock Free Play complete all 3 routes and watch the epilogue.

This is a smaller side project, focused on telling a story rather than complicated mechanics or visuals. Thematically, it’s entirely about pregnancy and, arguably, body horror.  There is no intercourse in this game, but there’s nudity,  xray views and depiction of childbirth.

The game has been created within the framework of my main project – Coffee Story, as such, it utilizes the same scripts, assets and even characters, hence the name. If you are interested in Coffee Story you can check it out on Patreon or Subscribestar.

Visuals:

• Scenes and characters are depicted through animated pixelart at world scale, in real time. There are no CG images.
• Environments are a mix of my own sprite-work and various asset packs rescaled, edited or redrawn to better fit character proportions.
• The target resolution is 1280×720. This can be rescaled, but the area view won’t increase.
• The target framerate is 60fps. Increasing the framerate increases the speed of the animations by design.

Audio:

• Ambiance, music and sound effects.

Gameplay:

• Gameplay consists of navigating through the house, interacting with the other characters and occasionally solving a puzzle to progress the story.

Controls:

• The default scheme aims to simulate typical RPG maker controls as well as WASD standards. Otherwise, controls can be remapped if needed.
•  Limited mouse support: Movement, some in game menu navigation.
