The Draw (June 2015)
This was made as part of the month long International Love Ultimatum Game Jam, (or ILUJam for short.) The game is a visual novel about relationships and confidence. The story follows Eulia, a college freshman, who falls for a cute soccer player named Mel after she talks to them. Players are able to choose some of the things Eulia says, and these in turn effect her confidence as well as Mel's confidence. The story ends differently depending on how confident Eulia and Mel are in the possibility of them potentially having a relationship.
I did everything on the game except the character art, which was done by Jones Wiedle, and the music/sound effects which were found free online. During the development I also kept a dev blog discussing some of the aspects of the development. The most notable posts were:
- On the relationship/confidence system.
- On using Twine for writing/prototyping.
- On using visual novel engine/editor TyranoBuilder for the first time.
- The post-mortem on some things I would have liked to have done or done differently.
