For a few weeks now I have been working on a game called Prosopon together with five other students from my class. I have the role as lead designer this project.
Prosopon is a game that takes place in ancient Greece. The player plays as a actor that have forgotten their lines and what play they are in from having a bit too much to drink the day before. The player have to read the surroundings and the other actors on the scene to figure out how they should act. The player then have to choose between three different masks - one happy, sad and angry. After that they have to pick a pose depending on how certain they are of the mood of the screen.
For example if the player thinks that the scene is happy they pick the happy mask and then do a dramatic pose the audience like it more than if they picked the happy mask but did not act out their role dramatically. The game is controlled by Kinect, the player will see themselves on the stage and being able to move around freely.
Propsopon and my team are going to be on Gotland Game Conferance 2015 so please come and try out our game and have some fun!
