Loop7 - Project at Black Forest Games

◆ Briefing

Trapped aboard an abandoned space station, work together to uncover anomalies, solve puzzles, and escape an endless loop. Experience a tense co-op horror adventure where every detail could be the key to breaking the cycle. This project was developed in collaboration with Black Forest Games.

◆ My Contributions

• Gameplay Programming Learned and utilized Verse to develop the game's core gameplay systems, including the central loop logic and the dynamic loop counter.
