Awa's Journey

This was a group project with a team of 5 people: Dominic Hartmann, Pascal Hartmann, Milena Shields, Kathleen Bohren, and me.

Awa's Journey is an adventure game set on a giant tree called Immamemdir. It tells the story of a brittle ecosystem and the consequences of a society, unaware of its fragility.

I was in charge of the technical side. That meant creating complex systems for the character movement, inventory handling, and text narration.
I also animation for the scene transition and participated in the voice acting, taking on the roles for the main narrator and a minor side character.
