Game Review #5

For this game review I am choosing Apex Legends. This game is a battle royale shooter game that can be played on pc, consoles, and phones. In a way, it’s similar to Fortinite, which people are more familiar with, in the sense that there is a certain amount of people who drop onto a map and they battle…

Pikmin Bloom is a mobile game that was released in late October of this year. Its augmented reality features and location-based activities resemble Pokemon Go, which Niantic had created as well. When starting the game, you slowly unlock each different color and type of Pikmin by planting seedlings…

Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory is a rhythm game spin-off with a wide array of songs from every Kingdom Hearts game up to Kingdom Hearts 3. Being my first game in the series, I had no prior connection with the music and characters, but the sheer quality of the songs got me interested in trying out…

After playing several Hoenn Pokemon ROM hacks, I decided to try one where the creator placed all of Johto and the Pokemon Crystal version of Kanto into a generation 3 game. Shiny Gold Sigma was made with the addition of new areas and every Pokemon from Generation 1 to 7 with Mega Evolution as well…

Game Review #2

I typically play a lot of JRPGs, so the experience of Portal was a nice change of pace for me. Learning how to use portal guns was a lot of fun and the start of the game made puzzles just difficult enough for me to bring my knowledge into the lengthier puzzles towards the end of the game. Navigating…

Genshin Impact has become one of the most popular mobile games in the past two years, also with versions you can play on pc and PlayStation. It’s one of the many gacha games I’ve played over the years, but its open-world exploration and combat elements set it apart from the rest.

I made a digital game for this design challenge in Gamemaker Studio 2. I had a lot of fun working in Bitsy for the last design challenge, but I wanted to use a program with fewer limitations this time. To get used to this program, I decided to create a simple platformer with objects you can collect…

I decided to revisit my game Starch at the End for the final design challenge. As a digital game, there were still a few bugs and difficult things to work around like removing page breaks so an extra dialogue box won’t appear, and moving browsers entirely since the program has more trouble running on…

I wanted to try something different for this design challenge, so I decided to try making a physical game instead of a digital game. I’ve played a lot of different board games as a child, but I had never really thought of creating my own until starting up this challenge. I was inspired by some games on…

My project “Starch at the End”, is a digital game made with Bitsy. I wanted to make something simple and start off with a program that’s easy to use so I could get my ideas playable as soon as possible, but it still took a lot of time to create the necessary sprites, rooms, and other features to make…
