Problem

Programming

I did the programming for HoloLens interactions, the mechanism of moving the walls in the maze, main game logic, the  sound management, and some post processing effect.

Post processing effect

Design

Brainstorm

  • I came up with the idea of a prison break game that the player can move the walls or mechanism to assist the prisoner in breaking the prison without being caught by the police.‍
  • In order to match their modeling style, the artists in my team turned my ideas into the little boy escaping the maze without being harmed by the monsters.

Design

I came up with the idea of having two kinds of walls for the player to interact. One can only move horizontal and another can only move vertical. In the beginning of the maze, there is a tutorial for the player to know how these two walls work.

I also designed early version of the maze.
