Made With Unity
Concept
Poly-Vinyl Pests! (PVP!) is a two-player twin-stick shooter boss-rush action game. In it, players take on the role of two ant colonies, sending out drones to win glory for their colony. In boss fights, players must work together to defeat bugs mutated by microplastics. But between boss fights, they must face off against each other in different pvp arenas. At the end of the game of the game, the player who performed the best is crowned Queen of the Ant Hill.
Process
I have worked on PVP! as both a narrative and boss designer, working to come up with dialogue barks for the players and bosses as well as fleshing out the boss move sets and attack patters. I created the documentation for each boss fight outlining their abilities and trigger conditions, and worked in engine to help implement these attacks and make sure that the fights are balanced.
Poly-Vinyl Pests!
Poly-Vinyl Pests! or PVP! is a cooperative and competitive boss rush game that I served as a Narrative and Boss designer on. It was my Senior Capstone project that my team and I have been working on since January 2024.
