Game Summary
The player takes on the role of a researcher sent to Antarctica to discover, clean, and populate their museum and research base with as many fossils as possible. The researcher must explore the arctic underground cave system, mining and collecting dinosaur bones embedded deep within the cave walls. Once their inventory is full, they return to the base to clean and assemble the fossils. The goal is to collect all 21 bones and complete all three dinosaur skeletons!
My Role
As the team lead, I developed the game concepts, mechanics, and overall look and feel. I drafted the UI for another team member, designed levels for both the exterior environment and research base interior, and created 3D models of the pickaxe, bone, and research bases.
