About the Game
The Bubble Wizard & Her Glorious Servant is an Isometric Adventure game aimed for a younger audience.
In The Bubble Wizard & Her Glorious Servant, the player must navigate the environment to collect items and talk to creatures to free them from their bubble prison, whilst avoiding obstacles on the way. Figure out the mystery of your imprisonment and try not to burst your bubble!
Contribution
I was the lead developer for this project, heading up mechanic implementation. My responsibility was to ensure everything was working.
My contributions included:
- A Bouncy Environment, with upon collision with the player it sends them off into any given direction.
- Dialogue Widget system for all characters, allowing the player to progress through the conversations naturally.
- Creating the physical bubble material and implemented the physics-based movement for the sphere.
This project was submission for Global Games Jam 2025 under the theme of "Bubble."
The Team
The team consisted of four people, myself included.
Kat Jokubynaite headed up concept and UI design.
Niko Pavlicek was secondary concept, taking the lead on character designs.
Finally, Kaitlyn Cragg was lead asset, creating textures and assets for the many environments the player navigates.
What I Learned
This project taught me the importance of constant communication, due to the smaller team size and importance of each role as a result of this. Being the sole Developer on the project added a lot of pressure, even more so considering the 7 day time limit. But I pushed through and managed to become proficient in new skills such as dialogue widgets and physics based traversal.
