DEMEO: PC EDITION
The PC port of a turn-based cooperative VR dungeon crawler, where you and up to 3 friends use cards and dice to fight your way through 3-floor dungeons on a virtual tabletop!
Released: December 2022 (entered Early Access in April 2022)
Involvement Period: November 2021 - December 2022
Tools I Used:
- Unity
- Perforce
- Favro
My Role: Gameplay & User Interface Programmer
Most of my tasks on Demeo: PC Edition revolved around making the UI properly controllable, as well as adapting some mechanics from the virtual reality (VR) version to work in flatscreen.
My specific achievements on this project included:
- Adapting the system for drawing lines in the air for communication to be usable for flatscreen players.
- Collaborating closely with a UI artist to integrate their work into the game.
- Implementing gamepad navigation across a varied set of menus.
Outside of my primary tasks, I also assisted by:
- Proofreading English text for the game.
- Showcasing both the VR and PC versions of Demeo with a small team at PAX West 2022.
About:
This was my first project at Resolution Games. I worked in a small team of 1 producer and 2-3 other programmers,
and also collaborated with UI artists and UX designers. The original version of Demeo had already released in May 2021 but was only playable in VR,
so we developed the flatscreen port of the game in parallel with another team that was creating post-release content for the game as a whole.
Other Notes:
- We had a hybrid work policy, so I worked both in-office and remotely on this project.
- Post-release, Demeo: PC Edition was integrated into the base Demeo application as a launch option and is no longer separately available.
