Lab Escape

Mobile game

2024

Lab rat is trying to escape! Solve the puzzles by pushing the magnets to get down the escape hole. The game was published several years ago but required a reskin to update.

I created the rat character to fit into the lab escape theme. I redid all the game assets and created a complete set of steam store assets. The client wanted a hand drawn aesthetic but still really clear shapes and contrasts for a standard block style of sokoban puzzles. This game will be relaunched and entered into Sokoban Steam Fest 2025

Updating the concept

Updating the narrative concept from a generic puzzle to lab specific, with a lab rat escaping down a hole. Testing background colours for contrast. Different styles of player character and game assets for design discussions. Creating asset sprites.
