Puppet Knights

Genre: Local multiplayer action fighting game

Completed in: 2015

Problem Statement: Can you make an entertaining fighting game where you control the fighters’ arms independently?

Solution: Puppet Knights is a local multiplayer arena action game pitting up to 4 marionettes against each other. Players control each marionette's sword arm and shield arm using the two analog sticks, and use the triggers to pull on the marionettes strings. This leads to clumsy and unpredictable showdowns as they soar across various environments and sever each others’ limbs.

The project was developed over the course of two months, in a 3-person team, made in the Unity game engine.
