About the Game:
Casual Connect Singapore 2015
We showcased the game at the event and got a tremendous response from players and critics alike. It was a great exposure for us college students at that time. The build was a tweaked version with more levels of the Game Hack 2014 build.
Game Hack 2014
We showcased our game there and had made iterations to our game in terms of design and art from the feedback that we had got from the players at NGDC 2014. We took two days to update our game. (The pictures are above in the starting of the page.)
NGDC 2014
The game was nominated from BYOG 2014. For the conference we updated and enhanced a few gameplay elements along with a few changes to the art. We made a feedback form which was filled from most of the players. By the end of the conference we had around 200 forms waiting to be analysed. We took two days to update our game. (The pictures can be seen at the end of this page.)
BYOG 2014
The game started as a game for BYOG 2014, a game jam. It was a one day game, we were given themes from which we had to choose two and make a game. We choose travel and preference.
What I did:
. Conceptualized core mechanics
. Implementation in Construct 2
. Showcased the game at 3 Events
. Made a feedback form for the events
. Analysed feedback
. Iterated game design
About the Concept:
The player collides arrows (drags and drops) to manoeuvre the taxi through the map. The player has to collect stars and get from point A to B. This is the basic concept for the game, we implemented three levels for the BYOG submission and then later on edited those three and added three more levels for the conferences.
