Ashes to Ashes

I spent my final year learning how to independently develop a game for my thesis project. Although I specialize in game design, my roles in previous projects have mainly focused on level design, environmental design, animation and illustration. For my final year and the culmination of time spent developing my skills as both an artist and designer at OCAD University, I wanted to challenge myself and learn how to create a small game as an independent developer. Through this project, I learnt the basics of the entire game design pipeline. I focused on the technical side of developing a game, teaching myself the basics of coding and programing, and learn how to integrate everything from art assets to audio and UI elements.Software Used:- Unity- Blender- Blockbench- Clip Studio Paint- Visual Studio Code

“Ashes to Ashes is a 3D puzzle game set in a seemingly abandoned tower. Guided by an unseen entity, you must ascend the tower while looking for candles that will light your way. Explore each floor to discover clues about yourself, the tower, and the voice that’s leading you to the end. ”
