Global Game Jam 2022 Game.
The theme for the game Jam was "Duality". I came up with the idea of a morbid doctor who kills his patients instead of saving them. The main character is heavily inspired by an actual serial killer called Harold Frederick Shipman, a serial killer doctor who killed his patients.
Dr. Death has the player take on the role of a doctor with a hidden urge to kill his patients instead of helping them. The player is able to choose between saving people or killing them. Depending on the choices of the player, a different ending is achieved.
The base structure of the game was coded in a single day due to time restraints. This is also the reason why the game is on the simpler side, because we were a team of two who both were only able to attend 3 of the 5 total days of the game jam.
