EggHead

By Will Fosnot

Thesis

EggHead is an exciting 2d platformer game inspired by Escape Room logic. The player takes the form of an egg in a fridge that needs to navigate past the obstacles, like butter, strawberries, and ice, to escape. This game plays with scale and imagines what its like to be an egg in a fridge. This game was inspired by the aesthetics of CupHead and Mouse Mazes. EggHead is made for kids and adults as the fun problem solving game.

Checklists!

We created checklists in Figma to make sure we were keeping track of workflow and staying on schedule

I broke down the game

production into larger

categories such as art,

Unity asset creation

and scripting.
