Background

A narrative-focused game combining elements from horror games and visual novels featuring the adventures of Kai in the titular city of Port Madrona.

This game demo was developed as part of my curriculum in the University of Washington’s Certificate in Game Design program. Along with my brilliant multidisciplinary group, we designed and developed a game demo over the course of ten weeks and pitched the concept to industry professionals.
