Kitchen Explorer

Description

This game is inspired by my former bitmap games. 

 https://cclab-portolio-zhijun.glitch.me/p7.html.

It's a game that tells the love and hate stories of us with kitchen, aiming to make a fun kitchen game by simply collecting useful objects and finally help the player have breakfast. Originally, the game is depicting a scene that people are always feeling hard to find their things in the kitchen. In this game, by moving the egg around the kitchen, you will be able to collect the right objects, such as a plate, a fork, a knife, and also salt and pepper. There are several traps: dropping fires on the floors( this is obvious) and also keep your eye on to tell sugar from salt!

Postmortem

• Successes

In this game, I designed a score counter, different sound effects, and buttons. I used tilemaps and animation. 

The characters and objects are all from my design.

• Failures

Needs to fix the button at the failure scene. So far it is not functioning properly to bring the player back to the start scene.

Make the tilemap patterns bigger, especially the salt and sugar image, since the font on these images is too small to be read.

• Lessons Learned

When designing the patterns for the tilemap, I need to consider how many cells my image should be taken.

Consider the size of font and color, let the texts become easier to be read.

• Future Developments

I would also continue to work to convert my kitchen game into a larger series to have these games with more scenes.

Since the bitmap game that I developed before also has a cooking egg scene and cutting avocado scene, I would also love to convert these two scenes into these unity games.

Also, I will have to finish the scene design to make these setting a kitchen look instead of using a simple wall tilemap now.

Redesign the UI, buttons, and position of texts and menus.
