Fox's Adventure, 2016

To help the fox find the treasure

Fox’s adventure is a very special one among all those games I have made. It was designed as a present for my mother.

After watching movie The Little Prince, my mother was in love with the origami-like fox and eager to have one of her own. Then I made her dream come true by creating a game with Unity 3D. In the game, the player, which would only be my mother, controls a fox to search for treasure in a plain surrounded by mountains, forest, and river. And the treasure is text “Happy Mother’s Day” hidden behind a mountain. Though the game sounded simple, but it was not easy to make for I was new to C# coding. The hardest part is to generate running legs while the fox is moving. For I could not solve this problem in such limited time, I ended up choose to raise the camera up a bit and not to show the awkward legs.

My mother was happy for sure. And I was so satisfied for her happiness. It was the first time I felt making game could not only bring joy to myself but to others as well. Designing a game is just like writing a book, for which the creator shares and communicates with the audience about his or her thoughts and feelings.
