I Have No Friends
Overall Background
This is a 4 week course project. Aiming to create loneliness, we developed 3 mini multiplayer games and wrapped them into a game to give them a theme. Following through the footstep of the main character - Daming, players have to beat the 3 multiplayer games by their own, since this game is supposed to be played by only one person. However sad the process could be, the game has a happy ending.
General Game Design & Feature Highlight
Game Design Overview
player follows through the main character - Daming, to experience one day in his miserable life. Three parts of his day will be presented in the form of game, and the rest would be presented in the form of a movie as a walk through.
