Danger Days
One of my favourite projects, due to my interest in serious/applied games, has been Danger Days. I worked alongside with the Red Cross running workshops, doing field research and taking what we'd learned back to the studio to turn it into a game.
This project aimed to teach 14-16 year olds about safety in disaster scenarios in Australia. This had to be done in a way that was accurate to the official safety information available at the time as well as age appropriate and aimed to keep the player safe. We taught them these skills using a range of their own ideas and thoughts on how to respond safely. (Below)
I worked on Wild Life: Puzzle Story, covering live ops, analytics, narrative design, writing, level design, systems design, documentation. (Below)

Project Sound
Project Sound was another university project: a "murder in the dark" style game in the style of an asymmetrical FPS where a "hunter" must face away from the screen and use 3D sound to prevent the remaining (up to 3) players as they attempt to take a bell to the alter in the center of the arena while avoiding obstacles such as glass panels, water and shattered glass.
I contributed as a game designer/level designer, systems designer, character designer, 2D artist, 3D and environment designer on a team of three. (Below)
