Narrative Design
Even though it was one of my shortest projects, I really enjoyed developing it. Working with the extremely simplified Bitsy game maker, I had to get creative in using the restricted color palette and dialog as my primary source of storytelling. It made me strip my ideas down to the core and be okay with it. The development included a lot of research of classic western tropes and the classic dramatic structures. Being a big fan of Aristotle's tragedy, the development of this game was an absolute treat.
