Colossal Chaos

What is the game

An arcade runner where the player input is done by manipulate a physical head, made from foam and a ‘very secret’ set of electronics.
The main goal of the game is to save the town by steering the giant out of it with least possible destruction.
On the way to the outskirts of town the giant will try to destroy as much as possible and the player will have to fight it’s pull towards it’s chosen targets.
If the player cannot hinder the path of destruction the game ends.

Overall design: I was the only designer on the team and had responsibility for the design tasks, we tried our best to involve the whole team in all design choices.
Level design: The team was really fond of the idea of making a gamified version of version of Visby so my goal was to use landmarks from the town, yet still make an interesting level to play.
Concept and concept art: Initially the concept was brought up in a number of concept discussions and we adapted it to what the team wanted to create. During stressful times for our graphic designers I provided concept art for them to find an initial direction.
Product owner: As a product owner I worked closely with our project manager and our main goal was to keep the project within scope and keeping a common thread. A lot of time went in to preparing design discussions, presentations and over all keeping track of the project and planning.
