MY BACKYARD

 
 

traverse your way to the end...

'My Backyard' is a unity made platformer inspired by my childhood home.  I developed this game over 5 weeks as my final project in LMC 4725: Game Design.  The class focused on rapid prototyping a game every week for the first nine weeks of class, before picking our favorite game and polishing it.

Super Mario 64 and Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, two of my favorite childhood games, where two of my big influences on this game, which is only fitting considering it is after all based around my childhood.

Trailer, credits, and download links are below.  I'd like to apologize for the choppy frame rate in the video, the computer I had at the time was unable to clearly capture in game footage.

Also, the game is windows only! If you're interested in a mac copy, feel free to email me at michaelgunnadams@gmail.com and I'll see if I can make a mac version.

Below to the left is the 40 second trailer, and to the right is ~4 minute full playthrough.
