The initial origin for CELL鈥檚 concept came from years of playing old-school arcade and console games. 听Games like Gyruss and Bust a Move instilled fond memories in my childhood and I wanted to bring that energy into the overall design of CELL. 听The biggest challenge to face for CELL鈥檚 development was merging the feel of the classic Arcade shooter with the tempo and gameplay of modern puzzle games, two distinctly different game genres. 听The result is the hybrid that you see today.

During the nine weeks of development, which included one week of pre-production and 8 weeks of production, unforeseen challenges occurred as the overall game vision began to blur. 听The design began leaning too heavily towards one genre or another. 听As such, early development time was lost during this fuzzy front end, but the game took flight as we looked down the concepts we agreed upon, completing it successfully by the deadline. 听In the end, working on CELL gave all of us on Team Jackal, a keen understanding of what it means to work together as a team. 听It was our first project where we cut our teeth on each aspect of game development as seen in the industry today.

Monster Munchies is a fun, fast paced, addictive, game that features an eating and growing mechanic.

The player controls an evolving creature that grows by eating smaller monsters while avoiding larger ones. The goal of the game is to grow and progress from a tiny monster living under a child鈥檚 bed to an enormous monster that eats galaxies. Though the game deals with monsters eating each other, Monster Munchies is very humorous and whimsical. The art reinforces the playful nature of the game with its cartoon /storybook style.

The storyline follows a small bean shaped creature named Hungr. 听Hungr, after living a feeble existence at the bottom of the monster totem pole under a child鈥檚 bed (and being bullied by his sibling for being the runt of the litter), decides to take a stroll to contemplate the meaning of life. 听When he comes to the edge of the bed he lifts his heavy eyes heavenward and discovers the ultimate inspiration: Godzilla, in poster form. 听Being filled with insight, Hungr gobbles up the goons living under the bed with him and ventures forth into the world with a glint in his eye, intent on conquering the universe.

The environments of the game include a static background the player can move freely around, with the exception of minor obstacles. Hungr begins its adventure under a child鈥檚 bed. The environment is largely open (with a few pieces of trash strewn around) and has a lighthearted open mood. 听
After conquering the area under the bed, Hungr seeks out larger prey in the general vicinity of the bedroom. The late night is beginning to give way to dawn, so the colors have lightened slightly, and a clear sky allows bright moonlight to illuminate the room. 听
As Hungr continues to grow he will venture further out into the world, eating everything in his way.听
