Serious Game Assignment

This small scrolling shooter game is supposed to be for asthma patients who are waiting at the hospital or medical facility for the doctor to finish their tests on them. This is more of a proof of concept than a full game but our assignment was creating a serious game with a specific target audience and through some connections we came to this audience. In the game you are just dodging obstacles and shooting enemies as a squid. there are a few worlds to progress through and some checks where the patient is asked a few questions which can be exported from the game and added as medical information.

My Responsibilities

During this project I made the pixel art and did gameplay programming.

Process and Results

Although the development process was kind of a mess, because our team was reduced from six to two, me and the other developer still managed to produce something playable and useful at the end. It is no technological wonder or innovative game but it was fun to make and helped me improve my 2D art skills while I was making it.
