Writing

The Haunting Barrel immerses players in a chilling choose-your-own-adventure experience. Trapped in an abandoned maze, you're pursued by a malevolent, possessed gun. Alongside the ever-present threat, players must resist lurking temptations and crack puzzles to find a way out. The game boasts a variety of endings, both hopeful and grim. Every choice counts, so navigate with caution and strategy, hoping to find the path that leads to life.

I think I grew in many ways during this course. I significantly improved my writing skills, particularly in describing scenes and a variety of 'sets.' I aimed to create empathetic characters relatable to readers and myself. Although my final story lacked these elements, I believe I have improved in this aspect. While writing, I initially attributed characteristics to the gun but eventually discarded that idea as it didn't make complete sense. Another goal was to excel at giving and receiving feedback. Despite feeling somewhat taken aback initially, I embraced all the critiques and weaved them into my story as effectively as I could.
