Interfaced

The Jewish MothersPresent

Overview

• Description:– Interfaced (tentative title) is a puzzle-platforming

game that challenges players to think outside of the traditional video game UI. Innovative puzzles will bend the way players interact with the game by making the interface itself interact and live within the game world, breaking the fourth wall in a truly unique gameplay experience.

• Narrative:– Thus far, we are unsure if we will pursue a consistent

narrative.

Overview

• Gameplay/Interaction– Players will interact with the environment though

their character/avatar.– Further interaction will take place though the

interface in two forms:• Informative: A stamina bar that depletes when the

avatar exerts itself. A mini-map to indicate location.• Functional: Shaking the mini-map causes the

representative environment to shake as well. A stamina bar that could act like a bridge atop a gap.

Overview

• Style/Presentation– The team is in unanimous agreement that this

game would benefit from a rough hand-drawn or cutout art style. Games that we have referenced as examples include Scribblenauts, LittleBigPlanet, Braid, and A Boy & His Blob. UI elements may use different art styles. If we want to make it obvious that the player should interact with something as if it belongs in a particular genre, we may attempt to mimic the aesthetics of games in that genre (i.e. chrome finish, transparency).
