Context

Expansion on a concept developed during the 2023 Game Maker's Toolkit game jam.

Highlights

  • Coordinated with designers, artists, and audio to ensure work came together smoothly
  • Designed a damage model to trigger events based on how well mech systems are maintained by the player
  • Developed an adaptable interaction system to support a wide variety of items and tools

Objective System

  • Objectives communicated through dialog cues of increasing severity
  • Neglected objectives result in faster depletion of resources and more fires to be extinguished

Physical Inventory

  • Massive items carried in the player's arms add to the feeling of being a cog in the machine
  • Choosing to deal with a higher priority can lead to picking up the pieces of your previous task
