Take Me To The Northern Lights

Take Me to the Northern Lights is a mature intimate story where players take control and connect to a character across his journey. The game is about the journey and not the destination. Over the course of the game sympathise with him and his motivations and ultimately want to join him on his journey to fulfil his promise.

"My dear daughter, my little star, I remember the day you were born. You were the smallest and most frail baby I had ever seen, but also the most beautiful thing I had ever set my eyes upon. I wept when I held you ever so gently, overwhelmed by a love I had never felt before. I felt so proud you were mine.

Now, you're no longer here to feel the warmth of a sunset hitting your soft cheeks. You're no longer here to grow up, fall in love, or cry when your heart gets broken. You're no longer here to see the Northern lights as I promised you one day.

I wish I could tell you how sorry I am, but you're not here to hear it. I regret that it was my fault, and I wish I could make it right.

I miss you, Luma, and I always will.

All I can do now is fulfil my promise, my little star and take you to the Northern Lights"
