Recourse (v0.1.0) by JackWasker23

About the game

Description:
Recourse is a top-down stealth-shooter wrapped in a slice-of-life visual novel.
Since childhood, A man has taught Adam (or you) everything: locks, guns, patience, and the rules he calls the Tenets.
Now Adam is 19, starting college, sharing a house with people who know nothing about any of it, and your caretaker has left town.
His only request was that you protect everyone in the household while he's gone.

By day: go to class, work shifts, spend time with the people in your house, and keep your nights a secret. Who you get close to, and how much they find out, is up to you.
By night: Top down stealth missions, inspired by Intravenous. Guards see in cones, hear footsteps, follow blood trails, find bodies, radio each other and come looking.
Cut the power, shoot out the lights, crawl through vents, hide bodies in dumpsters. Ghost a level without being seen, or take everyone down. The news reports what you did, and maybe even other characters.
