Description | 

 

 

Pontianak is a 2D top-down horror game, which is inspired by an Indonesian myth. This project was set by my lecturer to create an experience based on any story we could find online. We stumbled across the myth known as 'Pontianak' and began dissecting the story to find elements that could be turned into a game experience. The end result provided players with a short, but challenging experience, which was different every time they played. This was achieved by randomly spawning the key items/objective between set positions. Overall the project went really well and it was a great opportunity to create a game with only a story as inspiration.
