==Gameplay==
Taken by Storm takes the form of a 2D Metroidvania-type game. Amelia starts off with no attacking or defensive abilities whatsoever, only being able to run and jump. As the game progresses, you'll gain various unique abilities, allowing you to perform some deadly combo attacks, and get creative with them to solve puzzles and progress further through the Tower of Raun.
At the beginning of the game, you're given a simple choice: will you head up the tower or downwards? Your route will heavily affect the obstacles and enemies you face, the abilities you'll receive, and the storyline. Of course, both routes are accessible in a single game, simply by heading back to the entrance and climbing the opposite set of stairs.

Amelia 	Amelia is a 16 year old girl living in the peaceful coastal town of Aegir. Well, she used to be. When a great storm began brewing in the Tower of Raun in the nearby ocean, the town needed a sacrifice. Unlucky Amelia was chosen, as the sacrifice happened to fall on her 16th birthday. With the storm goddess Raun seemingly gone missing, Amelia must explore the tower and the surrounding areas in the hopes of finding a way to prevent the storm from destroying her home. She is a determined individual with an interest in literature surrounding the gods. Amelia wouldn't like to admit it, but deep down she is terrified.	 	
Heda 	Heda is a mysterious individual who communicates with Amelia through her ceremonial necklace. She appears as a red silhouette wearing a similar ceremonial outfit to Amelia. Heda will tell Amelia about areas in the upper half of the tower as she climbs it. She sounds awfully menacing, but Memories show her as being even more scared and timid than Amelia. 	 	
Kolga 	Kolga is another mysterious figure who appears to Amelia through her necklace. She appears as a blue silhouette as opposed to a red one, and once again wears a similar outfit. Kolga's voice is soothing, and she is constantly reassuring Amelia. Memories show her being a confident individual with a strong belief in the goddess Raun. 	 	
Raun 	Raun is the goddess of storms. She is a benevolent, peaceful goddess, but has a short temperament. Regardless, she is loved by all, and ancient civilisations built the tower in the hopes that she would love it enough to reside in it. Nobody knows what happened to the goddess, or why she has decided to brew up such violent storms.

The coast is rather small, housing mainly just the small town of Aegir. You won't be coming here very often, as it houses no collectibles or bosses. It has an inn where you can rest and a few small shops, so it's helpful to return here while exploring ocean areas. Every time Amelia is on the coast, she wears a cloak to conceal her identity. Aegir and the surrounding areas take heavy inspiration from coastal Italian architecture.	The coast is rather small, housing mainly just the small town of Aegir.

Aegeir Pier 	Every time you pull up to the coast, you'll dock your boat here. There isn't much to see here, as you can't access any of the other boats docked here.

Pirate's Shipwreck 	By diving to the bottom of the ocean, you can find a shipwreck. It appears to be a pirate ship, once known as the Maiden Voyager. It's loaded with treasure, but the ship is falling apart. Keep an eye out for falling pieces.
