Global Game Jam 2023 - Team: UnPolished
Rooted
Rooted was the result of team of 3 game design students partaking in a 48 hour game jam centered around the theme "Roots". It is a visual novel style game following the story of a potato named, fittingly, "Potato" and their adventures in and around school.
The team decided to abide by some additional diversifiers, which acted as additional development challenges, including making all art in MS Paint and recording all music and sound on a kazoo.
My Role
My role on this project was narrative design and implementation.
I co-wrote the majority of the game alongside Kamil Nowak which resulted in 15 pages of dialogue and exposition, which we had to reduce due to the time constraint.
