Beta Game
Description
Every one of us has a story, a narrative that we either tell to ourselves or others, about who we are. This story can reveal a lot about our interests, values, and history. For Assignment #7, you will design an autobiographical bitmap game. Think about how you would incorporate all that you have learned and will learn to design a unique game idea. What is most important is that the game reflects who you are and is intentional in terms of how you present your story.

Jump to grab strawberries
Reflection
Beta is an autobiographical story that is a combination of my fears, interests and the bedtime stories I grew up on. It starts with a girl in a lonely city, then she starts to see these strawberries. Every strawberry she catches reveals a new line in her story. Slowly, she reaches a forest and continues on her path. Jumping to catch strawberries on the path, swimming in the ocean and climbing mountains. The scenes get more abstract and the colour pallete becomes more muted and calm.
