Overview
A 3D puzzle-platformer built as the capstone for Northwest Vista College’s Spring 2013 Game Simulation class. Players use a “time gun” to stop, slow, and fast-forward the world around them — manipulating moving platforms, enemies, and hazards to put time and space back together. Female-lead protagonist, controller-compatible Windows build.
Recognition
Selected as a top-5 finalist in the inaugural 2013 E3 College Game Competition, organized by the Entertainment Software Association. Northwest Vista’s entry stood alongside finalists from Brigham Young University, the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD), the University of Wisconsin-Stout, and the University of Chicago.
Role
Project Lead + Lead Dev — drove the project vision and owned the Unity build.
