RIT Project
Digital Game - The Long Hallway
Play first-person as a patient in a mental health ward. Traverse the hallways, meeting fellow patients and staff, and experience hallucinations. You find that the organization's medication and practices are ineffective. You must keep your sanity to maintain your facade and leave the ward.
My Contributions:
Design a game loop and mechanics to engage players with a game for impact
Implement game core systems like player movement, interactions with the environment, the core game loop, and sanity system
Implement data tracking to analyze player decisions
Tools Used:
Unity (C#)
The Challenge:
We wanted to create a game based off a short story with a deeper and emotional tone. We chose to base the game off of The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins. The challenge was to then turn a narrative piece into a game. We decided to change the setting and utilize the core decisions made in the story and leverage them to create our core loop.
