DELIVERABLES
Rapid Protoype of the Game
This was a story round where we as a team had to present a virtual world which has a great storyline. Following the aspects of interest
curve and hero's journey we decided to go something which everyone relates or are familiar to. Amongst many great story ideas which were pitched for approval, everyone suggested we should go for the snowman story.
For this round I was again chosen to be the producer along with being a UX designer & sound designer. This was an animation heavy project and hence the 3d modelers and the artists were the crucial people in the pipeline. In order to tell the complete story we also added few safe points in game which would prevent it from interrupting the story.
The sound was playful in the beginning, gets intense during the rescue task and at the end compliments the emotional aspect of the game.
