Fail Fail Succeed

Fail Fail Succeed is a 2D puzzle platformer, where failing is a strategic move towards success. The game is built for PC and browser play, designed and developed as a 6 week solo project.

Step into the role of an anonymous blocky individual, with one singular goal in mind: make it back to pet your dog. To succeed you need to find transformations orbs that change what you leave behind upon failing, and keep on failing until you succeed – all to be rewarded with some sweet puppy love.

The game was originally developed and published as a weekend challenge, and was designed around metaphors for my own experiences with overworking, stress, burnout and mental health issues – something I am sure a lot of people have experiences with, and perhaps more so after the pandemic – but also about coping and overcoming these difficulties. A few days after the original publishing I decided to keep working on Fail Fail Succeed in my spare time, in order to bring it to GGC.

Myself and Eira, my four-legged companion, hope you enjoy the game!

It Has Been Three Months

It Has Been Three Months takes the player into the world of Lou, whose phone they have just found. The interface of the game represents that of a modern day phone, allowing the player to enter Lou’s world through social media, photos and communication with her friend Cass. The player must use these tools to find out what happened to Lou before she went missing.

The game was developed with Unity, targeting PC platforms.
