YGGDRASIL (2015)

First Year Intermediate Project

YGGDRASIL is an atmospheric 2D puzzle-platformer focused on two player co-op. Assuming the role of the two seperated lovers the players have to work together to overcome the obstacles that lie ahead on their path. A succesful gameplay is only possible through interaction and communication between the two players. The unique  art style of the game is based on norse art and gives the player the feeling as if the game is painted on wood. The players are the ones who „paint“ the story of the seperated lovers. The rather melancholic landscape and the slow paced music with anthemic sound contribute to an intriguing journey through the worlds of Yggdrasil.
