Lone Pine, an adventure game set in Lone Pine National Park, was showcased at PAX Australia, highlighting its cryptid photography mechanics and puzzle-solving features.
Game Mechanics and Features
The game invites players to explore Lone Pine National Park, using a backpack to collect items that can be combined to solve puzzles, alongside a camera for photographing cryptids. The photography minigame integrates shutter speed, aperture, and zoom controls, adding depth without complexity.
