Slider

Slider is an award-winning exploration-puzzle game based on 8-puzzle. It won the "Best Student Game" award at IGF, a global competition with over 500 entries. It finished 16th in GMTK, so we ran with it and developed it to completion over the course of a bit over a year. You can now play our demo on Steam, or check out the game jam version here.

In developing this game, I learned a lot about managing larger teams and long term projects. Development went from December 2020 to present day, and I worked with a team size of about 35 -- huge for just a passion project! It was super exciting to make progress though, despite it taking forever. I've also made so many new experiences in the time of working on Slider. It was my first time publishing on Steam, first time working on a game for over a year, first time tabling at exhibitions, first time working on an animated trailer. The game is still in the works, I'm super eager for it to come out!
