Design & Development Process
1. Concept & Planning
The game concept was structured around a board-game format with multiple locations inspired by the Adventure Time universe. Each location functioned as a mini-game with distinct mechanics and visual themes.
2. Visual Design & Animation
-
Pixel-style visuals were used to reflect the original animation aesthetic
-
Character movements and environment animations were designed to feel playful and responsive
-
Visual hierarchy was applied to guide player focus during gameplay
3. Interaction & Scripting
-
Interactive elements were developed using ActionScript 3.0
-
Timed challenges and puzzle mechanics were implemented
-
User input and feedback were carefully tested to ensure usability
