Sushido! |
The Game
Sushido is a fast paced action/arcade game about a cat catching fishes, turning them into sushi, and serving them.
Originally made for the Indies Vs Gamers Jam (2nd place) and GMCJam 20 (1st place + best presentation) simultaneously, Sushido has been played over 150,000 times and is one of the highest rated/featured games on GameJolt. Youtubers like Pewdiepie and Markiplier have played the game. As a personal project, I was developing Sushido into a full-fledged cross-platform (mobile/PC) game, with a team of 2 artists and a composer. I stopped temporarily to work on a smaller scoped game. My Role
As the game designer for the game, I am responsible for designing and fine-tuning the various systems in the game to ensure they all work well together, maintain difficulty curves and ensure replayability. I am also responsible for all design documentation to convey to artists accordingly, as well as working to ensure a well-balanced in-game economy for the final product.
I was responsible for writing the entire code for the jam game in GameMaker:Studio, in GML in 48 hours. However, in the successive iteration, we have moved to Unity and one of the artists has shared programming responsibilities with me. |
