The Roommate
The Roommate is a narrative exploration game made by a 3-person team for a 2 week school project. Players explore the giant world of humans from the perspective of the tiny cockroach living in their house.
PROJECT GOALS
The Roommate was made for a walking simulator assignment with the constraint of using an existing asset library. The team’s goal was to use these assets but explore them from a different perspective than they might usually be seen in games. For this reason, we created the cockroach character and focused on playing with scale as part of the level design.
RESPONSIBILITIES
