Cheddar Beach is an interactive visual novel inspired by old school point-&-click adventure games. In about 45 minutes of gameplay, you’ll meet Hamston & The Homies and traverse the world of Cheddar Beach in search of a crackin’ house party on a Friday night - inspired by Los Angeles in the early 90’s. A Message From Bryson Yo, I’ll never forget back in high school when the homie printed out over 100 flyers for a house party that was poppin’ off that weekend. No cell phones. No social media. Hell, no internet. That was a world where you’re NOT making it to that house party on Saturday night unless you have one of those flyers. Or maybe your friend is going, but you don’t have their phone number. How do you unstuck yourself and get to the action? In Cheddar Beach you play as Hamston, a young adult hamster. I thought about him as being my ‘younger self.’ I think back to my college days of trying to adapt to adult life, and the freedoms afforded by it, while also avoiding any adult responsibilities that I could get away with. Actually, wait a minute... I’m STILL Hamston!!! Well, you can be Hamston too! Kinda. Play as Hamston to be the ‘new guy in town,’ and navigate your way through “The Chedda.” Fortunately you’ve got your big cousin Gerbert on deck, pushing you forward. Hopefully in the RIGHT direction! Don’t worry though, all you have to do is page the homie Bossa and he’ll swoop in to strongarm you to safety. Let’s get it crackin’! Where’s the party at? Who’s got the 411? Let’s get there, and have a brew. Maybe you’ll meet a nice lady-friend. Who knows what’ll happen tonight? Welcome to Cheddar Beach!
