The strange case of Vic Taylor
A game created in the Global Game Jam with the theme of duality over a weekend. This 2D platformer took inspiration from the “Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde” but taken to a dystopian steampunk future. The plan was to have a mechanic that players can alter the level with their choices but was unable to implement in that timeframe.
This game was made during the 2022 Global Game Jam with a small team where I created the main and enemy characters ( however the enemies did not make it into the game ) along with a couple of assets. Including the faces that show the morality of the player, bundle of cloths and the ending goal that can be seen in the screenshots to the right.
The design for a steampunk setting was to try to work on a style that I normally avoid, and I do feel like I need to continue to work on it, with the design of the characters just needing a bit more work, especially when it comes to the standing out from the background, but all the different animations are clear.
This was the first time that I worked on a game created in such a short amount of time and managed to create quite a lot over the weekend. You can find the game's page below along with the final work that made it into the game.
