Tales From the Hill Fort is a 2.5D top down story puzzle game based around preserving the Celtic language.
Tales From the Hill Fort intends to create a visually appealing way to teach children about the history behind the Irish language. The player can see quirky and unique characters, interact with visuals and descriptions/poems for puzzles to help tug at their 'thinking strings', and will overall learn a fair bit of folklore that is intertwined with the gameplay. The hope is that students, parents, and teachers alike will use this game as a starting branch to learn more about the language and all that comes with it.
The player takes on the role of a girl named Aoibheall (pronounced "Ay-Viel") who has found herself trapped in a lush hill fort. She will have to learn Irish terms and phrases from several creatures from Irish myths such as Fairies, Selkies, and Dullahan in order to solve puzzles. Once Aoibheall has learned as much as possible, she will be able to leave the grove and return home.
For Tales From the Hill Fort, I worked as a level designer, designing both the flow of the levels as well as the entire game world.
