Romeo and Juliet

An assignment during class today was to make a game with 2 star crossed lovers who has to die in the end, preferably suicide. You couldn’t play the star crossed lovers. 

Our group thought of a game where you play as a prisoner on death row and you would try and get the help from your cellmate and a prison guard in order to escape. As it happens your cellmate and the guard are the star crossed lovers separated by rules and regulations. You are the drug lord of that prison with a lot of influence. By doing small puzzles you gather resources to make the drug that simulates apparent death. After you finish the drug you are not sure it will work and does not want to test it but your cellmate dares because he wants to get out but it fails and he dies. The guard becomes so depressed that she kills herself. Since it all backfired you couldn’t escape and when the time came for your execution, you died in the electric chair.

An optional assignment for next Monday is to create a game with these preferences:

Setting: World War 2
Genre: Survival Horror
Constraints: Nothing Supernatural
Main Character: 10 year old girl

I got some ideas and if I feel that any of them are worth pursuing then I might do the assignment 🙂
