Francisco Fernández del Riego, in The blind man of Pumardedón, tells the story of Mauro, a man left blind due to the war. Retired in a quiet town, the mind of the protagonist is still split, hurt, between the present and the past. The crudeness of war, the social fight... no longer seem to matter in his current context. The piece shines in its descriptive prowess: how the physical world, through sensations, evokes images of objects, nature... in Mauro's head. This same concept is the one we wanted to implement as this game's main mechanic. Through interaction with space and sound, the player will be able to discover the thoughts inside the mind of the protagonist.

Francisco Fernández del Riego consegue en O cego de Pumardedón contar a historia de Mauro, un home que quedou invidente por mor da guerra. Retirado nunha aldea tranquila, a mente do protagonista aínda se debate, ferida, entre o presente e o pasado. A crueza da guerra, a loita social... non parecen xa importar no contexto no que vive. A obra brilla na súa capacidade descritiva. Como o mundo físico, a través das sensacións, fai emerxer na cabeza de Mauro as imaxes dos obxectos, da natureza. Ese mesmo concepto é o que quixemos implementar como mecánica principal no xogo. Mediante a interacción cos espazos e o son, o xogador poderá descubrir os pensamentos dentro da mente do protagonista.
