Umurangi Generation

About This Game

Umurangi Generation is a first person photography game in the shitty future. Set in Tauranga Aotearoa off the back of an impending crisis you are a courier for the Tauranga Express. Throughout the game you will unlock a variety of lenses and equipment.

Unique and expressive grading system
Each photo you take is judged on its colour, content and composition. Taking a photo will net you a cash score which will go towards your final payout.

Complete Photo Bounties any way you like. Once you’ve completed these bounties deliver the parcel to finish the level.

Exploration bonuses on each level
New equipment for your camera is unlocked by finding film canisters, recreating postcards, fulfilling timed deliveries, and finding a way to fit all of your friends in one photo.

Edit your photos and develop your unique colour grade. The tools in the game are flexible enough that you can touch up your photos to look better than when you took them. If you are an experienced photographer you’ll fit right in. If this is your first time, you’ll be on your journey in no time.

What the hell is an ‘Umurangi’?
Umurangi is the Te Reo word for Red Sky.

Reviews

“Umurangi Generation is the best work of Māori science-fiction to emerge from our fresh decade.”
Spinoff

“For a game that’s ostensibly about photography, Umurangi Generation achieves so much more.”

“Umurangi Generation is an expression of culture that adheres to zero stereotypes, and this is evident by having never played a game like this before.”
