Memoriam

Memoriam is a game where the player explore the story about the character's mother. The player starts off in the main character's room, which is a realistic 3D environment. The player can then look at objects that represent memories, where it would teleport them into a 2D pixel art mini-game. Through these mini-games the player would explore the narrative. There are 3 mini-games in total.

​

I was involved in the game design process. Originally I had the idea where there would be children painting in the 3D environment, and all the mini-games would be played within the painting. However the idea evolved into what we have now, as we did not want to waste the pixel art talent of our artist. I programmed the transition mechanics between memories, as well as the mini-game where the player has to pick up leaves while being harassed by a squirrel.

​

The game was created during the 2019 Global Game Jam, all within 48 hours. It won Best Design in SCAD.
