I'm proud to present the version of my thesis project, Signs Of Life - a Unity built 2D point and click game - I showed at MICA's 2024 Art Walk. This game is still in progress, but playable with an ending. Please enjoy and stay tuned for the final, published version on Steam! (I kept a blog throughout the process of making this game, read it by clicking here.)







About Signs Of Life

This game represents a time of reflection and reconnection with myself. After taking an eight year hiatus between dropping out and coming back to finish my Bachelor's degree, I have a different outlook on art and my relationship to that creative side of myself. It was very important to me to have this outlet in my childhood and adolescence, and I'd like to try to find a place for it in my adult life while still incorporating a lot of the skills and fulfillment I get from more technical work that I practice now.

This game includes many writings, drawings, and ideas from the time in my life when I first left school - when games were very important to a sense of connection in a world that felt increasingly difficult to navigate and exist in. I hope that it facilitates a meditative, controlled environment for your thoughts as those games did for me, and a sense of discovery as you explore and interact with the many items and characters.
