I contributed to the programming of the tasks, the UI and the NPC movement. The UI tasks are stored in a dictionary together with their amount, explanation and icon, which are all updated upon the completion of that task.
I also did the rigging and skinning for all the characters and made the animated intro and outro cutscene and edited the final trailer.
Since it was the first game jam for the art team members, I helped guide them on the scope and coherence of the game and took charge of the game design together with Seb and Robin.
During the game, the top raccoon, Bob, is in charge of looking out for the manager bots and completing tasks. The bottom raccoon, Rob, is in charge of walking around and stealthily grabbing strawberries from the bushes to stash in their coat. Work together as a team to get as many strawberries as possible before the work shift ends, and most importantly, don't get caught! How many days can you last before getting fired?
The game is a commentary on global food systems, where fruit gets shipped across the world for profit and imperfect products get mindlessly wasted. All while the people growing it can still face food insecurity. But above all it's just a fun stealth game!
