Tales of Lion Vision

Short 2D puzzle/platformer game retelling a simplified story of the Donkerbos tribe from Namibia. Created as part of the MED1 Gamejam 2023

10/20/2023

This game was created during a four day gamejam by a group of five 1st semester medialogy students from Aalborg, myself included. We were tasked with creating a game to communicate a piece of cultural heritage from the Donkerbos tribe.

This task came after just four lectures, two for C# basics and two for sprite-art basics, and was designed to show us what it's like to work as a team & create a full product together. In other words, this is actually my first coding project.

The game's primary mechanic, beyond just jumping on platforms, is an alternate dimension, or "spirit world" that you activate with an ability.

While the ability is active, you can see spirit world platforms through the portals that appear.

But be quick, because the platforms disappear when your ability runs out, and not just visually!

While I did write all the code for this project, it still includes a lot of art made by the rest of the group, so for that reason I cannot share the project folder.

Instead, should you be interested in playing the game, you can download it at the top of this page.
