Fashion Police

Sole Developer

Fashion Police: The Game is a game about correctly identifying outfits as “hot” or “not”. It’s also a community where you can send in your own outfits and use your opinion to change what’s set as “hot” or “not”. Try to get a high score by getting as many points as possible (annihilation game) or clearing waves of outfits from the room as quickly as possible (time trial game). Outfits are judged not just on whether the clothes go together, but whether those clothes suit that person’s body. So you’ll find the same outfit on different people with different results. The emphasis in Fashion Police is on long-term styles, rather than passing trends.

This game was created entirely by me using Lua and the LÖVE 2D engineLuaSocket was used for the internet connection so that poll and high score data could be uploaded, and so the game can tell the user when a newer version has been released. The images of celebrities are taken from Red Carpet Fashion Awards (although the opinions on the outfits are mine). All other outfits are of me and of my friends who kindly agreed to be part of the game.

Soulmate

Producer, game designer

Find your soulmate – someone who has at least two things in common with you. Breed to create offspring, then play as your offspring to find their mate. Repeat.

There are two play modes: reality and denial. In reality, you have a biological clock that is ticking. So you only have a limited amount of time to find your soul mate. In denial, you have all the time in the world: the cycle never finishes and the game ends when you choose to end it.

You play as a young woman named Marie. You and your housemates had a dinner party last night and you can’t seem to remember everything that happened. You have an enigmatic phone message about Mr Right and it seems that Mr Right might not be your boyfriend! Talk to your housemates to find out who Mr Right is and listen to their opinions about your love life. Choose whether or not to listen to your friends, follow your heart, follow your mind or a little of everything.

For this implementation, the story was written in a spreadsheet and can be switched out for another story completely. That is, the code is entirely independent on the story being told. The syntax requires the spreadsheet to specify the conditions for which each passage of text is valid based on what the player has “remembered” and which passages have already been seen by the player. This means that if desired, the code framework can be used to create an entirely different game about different people and different mysteries.

Back to the First Date

Game designer, writer

The game was made for Molyjam 2013 and is based on the Peter Molyneux quote: “I wish I had some time machine and could go back two weeks. You live by your mistakes, for sure.”

Two time travellers, Sofia and Rajar, met at a Doctor Who convention and decided to go on a first date. Sofia subscribes to the vehicle-based mode of time travel (as seen in “Back to the Future”), while Rajar subscribes to the closed-loop model (as seen in “Hot Tub Time Machine”). Their first date didn’t go as planned, since they argued over everything from time travel theory to who pays the bill.

Two weeks later, both of them decide that they can help the date go more smoothly. Help each of them travel back in time to attempt to fix what went wrong so they are not alone in the present. Can you help these two scientists see eye to eye and live happily ever after?
