Mission: Muskox

Mission: Muskox is a project in development for submission to Climate Jam 2024. It is an educational game designed to help learners of all ages better understand the ways in which climate change affects the muskox, an animal species living in the Arctic. 

Update 1.1: 06/29/24

This update is for submission to the Prototype sprint of Climate Jam 2024. Included in the update is an actual prototype build of the game. Players can control the character sprite using WASD, explore a basic level, and view preliminary artwork.

During this sprint, I spent a lot of time learning how to import and animate character sprites within Unity. I'm looking forward to creating final sprites for both the player character and environment during the Production sprint. 

Below is also an update on the tasks completed based on the game design document submitted for the Ideation sprint of this jam. 

• Finish tutorial on 2.5D game development in Unity
• Create initial muskox sprites for player character in Asperite 
• Design initial level terrain graybox in Unity 
• Draft informational text for each level
• Program player character controls
• Program food collection mechanic
• Program score keeping
• Program timer
