Project Description
This is an original game that I created entirely myself; from game art to code!
The Festival of the Dawn is a mini baking game. You play as Basil, a young chef-in-training who visits the historic Elemental Island during his holiday break. “The Dawn” holiday celebrates Mother Earth and the creation of the Goddesses of Water, Fire, and Air. Since it is the Goddesses’ birthday, Basil wants to bake them a birthday cake!
The player must explore the island to find the ingredients for the birthday cake. Players use Basil’s Journal (a thin physical book that I turned in with my game project) to keep track of the ingredients they have collected with the checklist page and learn about the story behind the holiday!
Below are some of the game assets and props.
Cake Flavors
Sugar Cane, Wheat (Flour), Vanilla, Coconut (Butter), Almond (Milk), and Baking Soda.
The cake ingredients are vegan because it felt strange for the animal characters to be cooking with chicken eggs and cows milk.
Cake Flavors & Decorations
Strawberry, Peanut Butter, Cherry, Chocolate, Peach, and Rose.
Due to the time crunch, I was only able to include three flavors.
Tents
These are scattered around the world to create the sense of a festival.
Each tent follows the color palette of a specific element.
