About The Process
This is probably the game I am the proudest to have worked on. I attended the 2021 Global Game Jam site at Northeastern University virtually, due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and made a group with other developers there. I was one of two programmers, with a friend of mine. We worked with 3 digital artists, and a sound designer/composer from Berklee College of Music. I had a lot of fun designing enemies and creating a basic finite-state-machine for enemy AI. There was a lot of great back-and-forth idea hashing with this one, and I think the end-product ended up really tight and polished for something made so quickly!
