Exhibiting MFA Game Design students:

Chase Jones - Drag Attack

In Drag Attack, slay as Chicago drag artist Molly Jolly Christmas as she fights to stop Billy the Bigot’s anti-drag agenda in a beat 'em up adventure that blends action, adventure, and sickening fashion.

David Norton - Sk8r Skull

You are a skull. A wizard has stolen the rest of your bones. Skate, grind, and break your way to the top and get your body back! Sk8r Skull blends fantasy and pop-punk in this 3D platforming adventure.

Katherine Zhang - The Son Becomes

The Son Becomes is a game that showcases the cycle of generational trauma which creates a never ending loop of victims becoming abusers. Follow this son's family journey to see what the final son will become.

Lauren Watson - Floodfriend

One part puzzle-platformer and one part eco-sim, Floodfriend features a lost human hiker and a light-sensitive monster that are forced to work together in order to navigate a sprawling system of caves.

Robin Van Bree - Hominoid

Hominoid is a game about stories, and the accumulation of words, images, and choices. Brainworms, metaphors, intrusive thoughts - all only partially true, yet more real than what actually happened.

Z Sarkissian - In The Light

In The Light is a first-person horror-puzzle game where you play as Cassidy, a young adult drawn by unknown forces back to their childhood home. Wielding a newfound ability to create portals, traverse shifting eras to confront memory distorted by grief and forgotten secrets.
