The big escape

The Project

My project is an escape room. The player has to escape from the house as fast as possible! To do this, they need to solve all of the puzzles and get the key to open the door to their freedom. The player can click on things to open/use them. You could technically play it on a phone as well, since the keyboard is not needed.

I really like going to escape rooms with my family, and i thought it would be a fun challenge to try and make my own escape room. It was also interesting to see my family and other people that i knew try to beat the escape room.

I found it really hard to minimise the amount of sprites that i had to use, so i tried to give each sprite as many costumes as possible (so i could reuse them). The escape room also had a bunch of bugs that i had to fix. Letting my family play it really helped to identify the bugs.

I think i would want to add a timer and a way to give hints to the player, because there are quite some places where the player could get stuck and i don't want that to ruin the fun.
