Maus House
Game Jam Entry for GMTK 2024
Description
Maus House is a Visual Novel developed by my team over 4 days as an entry for the GMTK game jam of 2024.
The Player explores the new house of Chives Mouse and chooses whether to befriend or trick the characters he meets along the way. For this project, I took on the role of producer, solo programmer, writer, and artist.
Script
I wrote and edited the script over the course of one day. You can find a link to the script below, formatted to make it easier to implement.
Final Thoughts
This game jam was a great exercise in writing and editing under tight deadlines, as well as how to scope a game with branching narrative paths. After the game jam rankings out of 7635 games, we won:
#62 in Style (top 1%)
#450 in Overall rankings (top 5%)
