Yin: A Game About Happiness – progress

Hey everyone!

Just sometime before I’m heading to bed I’ll write a blog post. Today I woke up and started with a meeting with the whole Atomic Vikings crew. We have decided on a cool concept and everyone started working on it. Except for me, because I’m the sound guy so I’m starting a bit later to work on that game.

So I started working on my own game, at first I had no clue about what I should make. After a while I decided I wanted to make a simple ‘sit back and enjoy the ride’ kind of game, without a clear concept in mind except for something related to tasks that you get every 10 seconds. These tasks would not be obligatory.

After a few hours I had this:

A really simple, cute looking platformer. I decided I wanted to continue into this art direction and now I have a lot of assets in that style, as well as a fitting concept with artistic value.

I’m happy with the looks so far, I still need to make quite some levels, all the SFX and also the music so this might end up as a jam project. I do already have a menu though!
