The Concept: Masking Scents
Created during during the 2026 Global Game Jam, our team was given the theme "Mask". We decided to take a unique approach by focusing on masking scent, specifically to utilize a brand new piece of technology: the OVR Omara!
In this sci-fi bartending game, you brew specialized teas for eccentric alien customers by playing skee-ball! Each ingredient you land in the teapot satisfies a different scent profile requested by the customer. It was an incredible experience getting to concept, build, and finalize a game around this new olfactory hardware in such a short amount of time!
My Contributions
Audio Design
I created and implemented the music and sounds for the game. Giving satisfying audio feedback for the skee-ball rolling, the coins clanging in the tip jar, landing shots in the pot, and the alien chatter was crucial for making the short gameplay loop feel rewarding.
Interactive Polish
I programmed the interactive tip jar that dynamically fills with money after successfully serving an order, as well as the script that handles the tea cup appearing and disappearing seamlessly during the brewing sequence.
Character Design
To populate our sci-fi bar, I designed and modeled two of the unique alien customers that players serve. Establishing a goofy, lighthearted tone for the patrons was a blast during our quick brainstorm sessions.
