Songes | Alex Courtin

6-Month Project with a team of 5

Songes is a Zelda-Like in which the player plays Hana, a child suffering from derealization who must reconnect to his senses.

To do so, Hana can switch worlds between dream and nightmare, play with 3 types of waves that allow her to attract, repel or activate objects.

These tools will allow her to solve puzzles and reach the boss of the level, Mr Belly.

What I Did

Songes was my first video game project, so I discovered a lot about programming since it was made during my 2nd year in Game Design.

I was in charge of one of the puzzles in the game and also the design and programming of the Boss.

So naturally I was involved in Game Design and Level Design but I also worked as a Gameplay programmer, System and UI.

Make a game

Being the first game I made, I discovered all aspects of production on the job.

Concept, research, pipeline, code architecture, production, polish.
