How does your game fit the theme?
In games, we usually play the role of a protagonist, solving challenges, fighting enemies, and saving the world. But what if we weren't the main character? We have explored various ideas, such as being an antagonist, the damsel in dismay, other npc, or even the weapon itself. After further brainstorming, we decided to “reverse” our role as the space itself. In most games, we need to navigate through space in order to drive the adventure forward. Game designers meticulously designed the map to guide the player's action, whether it’s collecting treasures or avoiding obstacles. We wanted to experiment with the concept of players controlling the space to assist the “protagonist” in winning the game. For our prototype, we used Flappy Bird, a classic arcade style game. In Flappy Bird, players click the screen to maneuver a small bird through obstacles. In our game, FxxxBxxx, we control the “obstacles” instead, “helping” the creature flying through. At the same time, we also reversed the story to reveal the truth behind the curtain.
