Linking Worlds: A Video Game Exploration of Adolescence

Nick Meng and Kelly Cao

May/June 2024

We created a platformer video game using both 2D hand drawn assets and 3D environments. The character the player controls is stuck between two worlds - childhood and adulthood, fantasy and reality. The game itself is also a combination of disciplines: traditional art combined with programming, and 2D level design in a 3D world. Use the “A” “D” and spacebar keys to move, and the “E” key to interact.
