Wulver Game

Based on Scottish folklore, Wulver is a game about a friendly anthropomorphic wolf who lives in a cave and helps the people of Scotland with their mythical creature problems. It is a 2D, top-down, role-playing adventure game with stylized, hand-drawn graphics and a narrative that helps teach players Gaelic and some Scottish folklore and mythology. It was the Overall Winner of the 2021 Kilted Otter Game Jam, which focused on exploring Scottish heritage, culture, and language. 

 

As the only designer on a team of four, I developed the game's concept, mechanics, and systems; assisted with art direction; designed the level and quests; selected and edited the music; created blend trees for sprite animations; and wrote some scripts (C#) to connect the animations to the scripts. 

​

This was a two-month game jam, but because most of us were in school at the time, we only worked on it for a few hours each weekend. Two members of the team quit after the first couple of weeks, and we were only able to replace one of them in the last couple of weeks of the jam.
