Oma

The Project

Oma is a narrative focused game about love and loss. It was made for the 2024 Global Game Jam. The theme during this game jam was "Make Me Laugh". While working on the game we wanted to give a twist to this theme that was unexpected. We wanted to do this by creating a narrative around loss and making someone laugh for the last time.

The project can also be found on the Global Game Jam website. 

The Process

My focus during the game jam was on creating the mechanics in Unity, using Yarn Spinner to power the dialogue system. In the game you also play short minigames where you have to stuff like baking an egg or organizing papers. These where also programmed by me.

All art and dialogue was made/written by Nikki Hordijk.
