Mya of the Desert Exposition Sample

Mya of the Desert is a 3rd Person Adventure game, inspired by Breath of the Wild and Journey. This scene is the exposition dump at the start of a roughly hour long game. 


In addition to writing the scene, I worked with the sound contracting team (AudioBrew), who provided the voice overs for the scene. I worked with them to pick the correct voice actor and take for each line. While I did not work directly in the booth due to distance, I was consulted over the phone during these sessions.

Airwaves Audio Samples

Airwaves was an Alt Controller game, built into a custom TV set, where the player took the role of a sleeper agent during the Cold War as they tried to crack codes for the United States, Russia, and Cuba

 

I worked with the person who pitched the narrative to translate their ideas into a level structure and wrote the script that would take the player through that experience. I also hired and worked in the booth with local voice actors to record audio.

Yuligans Writing Samples [Link]

Yuligans was made to feel like a storybook mixed with a board game. You and up to three others play as Santa’s Elves in the weeks leading up to Christmas Eve, where your choices will determine whether or not it will be a Year Without a Santa Claus! 

 

Inspired by games like The Yawhg and Monster Prom, Yuligans is full of skill checks and branching stories, and ends with epilogues for both the group and each individual player.

North of Nowhere Dialogue Samples

North of Nowhere is a Real-Time Life Sim inspired by Animal Crossing. I designed the characters to be randomly generated so that they would feel varied, even if one or more personality components repeated across NPCs.

 

The examples were created for a Publisher Pitch of the game. However, they highlight the type of branching dialogue we had wanted to have prominently in the final game.

Document Samples

A Flowchart for a fantasy MMO side-quest. It's short, low intensity, and has minor branching to give the players unique experiences.

 

[Biographies]

Biography samples from a hypothetical Star Wars film treatment. In the film, a Jedi Knight and her students defend a mysterious artifact as they are hunted by bounty hunters and Sith.
