I have created a new micro-game. It’s called Story Essay Cat and it took me just 3,5 hours to develop.
Click here to play.
Story Essay Cat is a full-fledged cat writing simulator with social media integration. Now you can pretend to be a cat writing a story essay. And you can share your #catstory with your friends.
Perhaps some backrgound info is due. The game was created as part of a seminar I conduct at Cologne Game Lab. We are preparing ourselves for the Global Game Jam. So I torture my students with the task of creating game prototypes on very tight time constraints. And of course I participate too. This is where the game was created. In this cycle, the task was to create a game inspired by a Captcha word combination. I got “Story Essay Cat”.
You can play the game at http://www.gamedesignreviews.com/storyessaycat/ or over at Konregate. Feel free to tweet about it loudly and proudly.
P.S.: Mad props to NORA the cat for providing the soundtrack. I hope you don’t mind me using your tune, NORA. I’m a huge fan.
