Overview
Inspired by the GGJ theme Transmission in 2018 the goal of the game is to infect cells by doing some "Dance Dance Revolution"-style rhythm challenges against another player. After the jam, the game was "remastered" to eliminate some pesky bugs and then ported to be able to run on the Winnitron, a custom-built arcade machine we had in the university.
It was my first time participating in a game jam and back then that meant sleep deprivation, poor eating habits and lots of work and stress. I was still very glad to have made that experience as being done with a project after an intense development phase can be almost relaxing.
These days I know that a healthy work-life-balance might not lead to the same immediate results but is a lot more sustainable in the long run.
I was lucky to collaborate with the talented Melina Rose, Raven Rusch, Chad Comea, Adinda van Oosten and Lóng Zhang.
