Old Maid

4 Siblings. 3 Cookies. 2 Choices. And only 1 person to make that choice.

You. That would be you.

Whatever you pick will decide the fate of the world. (or in this case, who get the last cookie)

The purpose of this project was to simply make something funny, while also following the theme. The project will accomplish at giving players a good laugh when seeing all the dialogue. As a first time game, I decided that a more simple deception themed game that was funny would be a good idea for a project. It may not be funny for everyone, and it’s not that long of a game anyway, but if it even gets a chuckle out of the player, I’d see that as well accomplished.

When I thought of the theme of deception, I thought of it as simply lying to the other person, sort of like passing off a facade. Since I wanted the game to be funny, I decided to exaggerate it a bit. Not only do one of the characters try to lie to the other, but even the narrator lies a little bit. There’s even a special thing that the narrator will do to the player, but only when you see the secret route.
