Moccoletti

Moccoletti is a 2-4 player arena-style game with full controller support, where players will run around a garden maze, trying to deplete one another’s candle by shooting gusts of wind, navigating, dodging, or hiding in the dark to avoid the same happening to them. The game uses a pixel-art style, heavily relying on a mix of theatre and carnival aesthetics. The players choose between a wide selection different carnival mask as characters; and a range of weapons which all shoot wind in different ways (a hand fan is slow but hits a wider angle, while a hair dryer shoots in a straight line but has to recharge for a while to be useable again). The players can choose between different game modes for a free-for-all, or a team-based experience for a longer series of games to blow each other away in a carnival evening of chaos and mayhem!

Moccoletti was awarded Best Presentation at the Gotland Game Conference 2024, hand has since been released on Steam.

Metamorph

Metamorph is a low-poly 3D horror game that blends body horror and a narrative about growing up in a body that very quickly becomes foreign to you with aspects of the visual novel genre. The game is envisioned as a slow-paced atmospheric game that aims to envoke a growing sense of discomfort in an environment that slowly progresses and evolves alongside the player. Though the game is story-driven, as a team we’ve attempted to mix the story with interesting and engaging gameplay features and a unique visual style that mixes both traditional 2D and 3D graphics with mixed media and creative technical implementation. You play as a high school girl who wakes up one day and realizes she is slowly but surely turning into a twisted, bizarre cockroach monster. With this realization, she sets out to score a date with her crush before her grotesque transformation is complete. Will she succeed… Or will the pressures of high school and being stuck in a horrifying lovecraftian nightmare be too much? Play through an engaging story about teenage woes, explore a detailed 3D environment, experience a variety of minigames and prove that appearances aren’t anything, even when said appearances are a bit unconventional.

Metamorph was awarded Best Storytelling at the Gotland Game Conference 2024.

Krax Ca-caw’s Concoction Chaos

A physically interactive game with tactile inputs, where the player(s) add physical ingredients into a cauldron or stir it in the right direction according to a recipe they must find. After adding the appropriate ingredients and stirring the pot, the players shows Krax the potion. The player will be given points depending on their accuracy with the recipe. The more steps of the brew that are in the correct order, the higher the score. However, there is a limited time and players compete in who can make the most potions the most accurately in the given time! Krax himself serves as the player’s teacher and judge, reacting to the input of the player throughout the entirety of the game.
