Like so many children, Tim was a victim of sexual abuse. Twenty years later, while playing Orco Park, a videogame from his childhood, his memories will come rushing back along with a flood of questions : How could this have happened? Who knew? How has it shaped him? What does “normal” even mean? Written by Pierre Corbinais (Haven, Road 96: Prologue, Bury Me, My Love), Wednesdays seeks to raise awareness about child sexual abuse through a surprisingly uplifting story. A mosaic of stories and characters Wednesdays tells a fragmented story through multiple perspectives. Build rides and embellishments in Orco Park to unlock Tim’s memories in the order you see fit. Step into the shoes of Tim’s relatives and try to piece together the tangled memories of his past. Unveil a moving and sincere story dealing with intrafamilial sexual abuse without any taboo but with a lot of heart. Two colorful art styles for the price of one Wednesdays blends two distinct yet complementary art styles. Tim’s memories come to life through the work of comic artist Exaheva (Mekka Nikki, Still Heroes) and draw inspiration from alternative comics and graphic novels. Orco Park is designed by pixel artist Nico Nowak (There Is No Game: Wrong Dimension), evoking the charm of 90s classic video games. A game everyone can play Part video game, part graphic novel, Wednesdays has been designed to be accessible to players of all kinds, and even non-players! A wide range of settings ensure that the experience can be tailored to suit anyone’s needs. Authentic voices Wednesdays doesn’t just aim to break the silence around child sexual abuse, it also provides a platform for several of its team members to have they voices heard, as artists, and as victims. The game does not include any graphic representation of sexual abuse, and even if its topic might sound grim, Wednesdays is above all about trust, hope and healing. Meet the devs! Buy the Supporter Edition to gain access to some exclusive behind-the-scenes content : an interactive interview with the creators where you can ask (almost) whatever you want. Accessibility Accessibility has been taken into account throughout the production of Wednesdays: - Adjustable text size (5 levels); - Highly legible alternative font (Luciole); - Zoom adjustment in the Park section; - Manual or automatic text scrolling, with adjustable speed and preview; - No precision or speed gameplay nor complex sequences.
