Shattered Reflections

"Shattered Reflections" is a linear narrative that delves into the very temperamental family that is the Marrows, as you play as Aaliyah struggling with her own inner turmoil trying to connect back with her family after coming back from college. She is stopped when an unexpected phone call brings in disturbing news about a body found in the home. As the story unfolds through dialogue and revealing interactions, players are drawn into a riveting exploration of themes such as familial expectations, personal identity, and the devastating consequences of unaddressed conflicts, delving deep into fractured relationships, shattered dreams, and the profound impact of silence on the human soul.

On this project, I worked as the Project Manager, Programmer, and Game Designer. My team and I would work in weekly sprints with a planned playtest every 2 to 3 weeks. Below is a development slide I was using to document the project's process as well as screenshots of the Trello board I was using to keep track of tasks and the development.

It is playable on itch. (there is a playable embed below but I would visit the itch page cause Shavon did an amazing job on the page's art. It is more immersive than my portfolio)

PROJECT MANAGEMENT

This was a slide deck that was created to help with keeping track of the project's development from start to end.
