During my second year, a group major project was assigned. The assignment was to create an interactive piece of media within a time limit of four months. My group decided to create a side scrolling game featuring our classrooms and certain characters from around the program.

 

The story of the game is that Shmevin, the playable character, was shrunken by his students for failing them. The only way to regain your normal size is by reaching the end of the level, where three magical potions await, one of which is the antidote. The path though, is not quite simple. Quadcopters, hot coffe, gum and other objectd obscure your path, all while a master hand is in hot pursuit so that Shmevin does not reach the potions. You can ride a mouse to zoom past certain objects but dont let you coffee meter run out, or its game over for Shmevin.

 

I was in charge of creating all the design assests for the game excluding the charcter, which was created in a 3D program. I was also in charge of creating all the menu, instruction, and upgrade interfaces. Within the 4 months we were able to get the game fully functioning, minus adding in the three videos for what happens when you pick a potion, which can be viewed here.
