SHUTTERBUG
Shutterbug (2024) is a friendly game about discovering the world by taking pictures. It was designed and developed in Unity, as part of my university dissertation, discussing how photography in video games can create a sense of attachment towards virtual spaces.
The design focus of this project was to create an entertaining camera mechanic, that would encourage players to document and connect with the space around them through their personal photo collection. I also aimed to implement a cohesive UI and design a unique collection of 2D characters to bring the world to life.
This project won the 'Best Nominated Character Award' at the University of York Interactive Media Showcase 2024.
