Edgebound was our entry for the Brackeys Game Jam 2021.2. It was also featured in the 17th Athens Digital Arts Festival.
An abstract game-like experience about getting in touch with the psyche. It consists of different worlds, each one representing a different state of mind and thus having its own distinct visual theme. The players assume the role of the inner-self and by rushing through memory, thought and emotion fragments, they explore the unpredictable nature and vagueness of thoughts, as well as the trait of the mind to shift states spontaneously.
Concerning the visual aspect, our main objective was to create an aesthetically pleasing 3D parkour game that aligned with the jam’s theme. Given our limited proficiency in 3D modeling, we chose to use simple cubes and instead, direct our focus towards our shared passion for shader creation, in order to bring this vision to life.
