Come see Botting Alive and the other Spring 2025 games at VGDev's opening showcase on August 26th at 5:00-7:00 PM in the Klaus Atrium! (3/3)
Photo with title "What was your favorite part about working on your game?". Alex says "Writing the story of course. At first I just want to build a funny game shitting on UPS customer service, but later (and after I saw Adna’s concept art) I realize what I truly want to do is to use game to tell a story." Below the text is a photo of an in-game CG of Callie crying. Photo with title "Are there any parts of your game you wish you could have polished more?". Alex says "A lot I would say. I think the major issue is that this game is \*very\* static. Like this is no on-going stuff happening, and guidance & hints are very limited. So the player will either lose their track or become bored really quick. Also in the demo we removed the time limit, but later I think that is actually crucial. Anyway I'm working on a new game (also called B.A.) and hopefully we will see the improvements there." Photo with title "Any other notes/comments?". Alex says "lober!!" Below the text is a photo of a blue lobster. Photo with title "Come see Botting Alive at VGDev’s Opening Showcase!" and body text "Tuesday, August 26th 5:00-7:00 PM Klaus Atrium." Attached is the game's title screen, featuring an Apple Watch receiving an incoming call from Callie Abbondi and the text "BA" and "Botting Alive".

Photo with Callie and Little Guy with the title "Game Description" and body text: "Callie had a long nightmare last night. It began with a tense dinner with her family, following an ugly argument with her girlfriend Beth. She wanted to go back to her dorm, only to forget the room key… That’s the last thing she remembered. Then things got even worse. She quickly realized she was buried alive in a coffin. Sure Callie got a broken apple watch, but what could she do with that huh? As she dug deeper into the watch, something strange began to unfold, and the events of yesterday no longer seemed so clear. Details slipped. Doubts crept in. Was any of it real? And wait, is this description even how it really happened? " Photo with the title "Team Leads" and a photo of Alex. Photo with title "Tell us a little about yourself!". Alex says "I’m Alex, a 2nd year PhD student in neuroscience. I specialize in programming and writing." Below the text is a photo of an in-game conversation on an Apple Watch. Photo with title "How did you come up with the idea/concept for your game?". Alex says "I happened to come across a game called COLD LINE, basically you have to call the White House via bureaucratic annoying voice bot to stop a nuclear weapon. That’s a cool concept and I also happen to hate those voice bots (UPS especially cuz I almost lost my packages). So I was considering an extreme case, what if you are buried alive and all you can do is to use your broken apple watch to get out of here. (there is even an irl inspiration, a dude in Washington state tried to buried her wife alive, but she somehow survived)"

First up is Lightborne, a pixel puzzle platformer where you’ll play as Lyra, a goddess in training. By bouncing light beams and navigating ruins, you will slowly obtain the power of the Divine Prism, all while uncovering the secrets that lie within its broken shards. (2/7)
Photo with Lyra and Little Guy with the title "Game Description" and body text: "Long ago, humanity received a gift from the gods known as the Divine Prism, a source of pure light embodying truth and knowledge that filtered divine light into forms that humanity could comprehend and safely use. Yet, this harmony did not last long. As the humans’ greed for the power of the prism grew, fractures started to form on the prism’s shell until one day it shattered, its pieces sent to the corners of the human realm. Lightborne is a pixel puzzle platformer where you’ll play as Lyra, a goddess in training. By bouncing light beams and navigating ruins, you will slowly obtain the power of the Divine Prism, all while uncovering the secrets that lie within its broken shards." Photo with the title "Team Leads" and a photo of Vivian and Raymond. Raymond has a placeholder image with Lyra's sprite due to not being interviewed.
