Chill Out, Chilli!
⊹ ࣪.⋆~⊹₊⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾⋆⁺₊⋆✩࿐
For MFA Thesis
Throwing a ball is all it takes to unleash total chaos. Guide Chilli through destructible apartments, breaking everything in sight, and fix key objects to unlock new paths for even bigger messes.
Interview:
✧ In one or two sentences, describe the main themes present in your game.
The core themes I explored are companionship with Chilli, stress relief, and secondhand consequences through destruction.
✧ What was the inspiration of the game? What made your team decide to make this game specifically?
This project was inspired by my own dog, Chilli. She is chaotic and does not always listen to commands. I wanted to explore using Chilli as a way to destroy the environment, but not through the players' own hands. It's a look into the second-hand consequences of interacting with a rambunctious puppy that doesn’t know its own strength.
✧ What were some of your most memorable moments from making this game? What did you learn from those moments?
One of the most memorable moments from making this game was from the community that was formed within the thesis classroom. Everyone was open to helping with idea formation, iteration, playtesting, and collaborating. Seeing my classmates put their heart into their projects really encouraged me to push myself to try different things within the game.
