Calling Mother
Global Game Jam 2017 - Design
Calling Mother is a side-scrolling platformer set during the cold war, where as an undercover KGB Agent, the aim is to avoid the platforms of redacted text that appear, as you attempt to navigate your radio signal towards the end goal of Calling Mother.
Our team made use of Game Maker for this particular project.
My key role in the team was Lead Game Design
- Developing the initial concept and story for the game
- Additional programming where needed, such as for the Score Board
