Mon rôle sur le projet
Durée de ma mission: Janvier 2022 à Novembre 2022 (11 Mois)
Reprise et mise à jour du Game Design Document
Lorsque je suis arrivé, les 24 mini-jeux étaient en cours de concept par un autre Game Designer. J'ai pris sa place et j'ai continué ce travail pour que l'on arrive à un total de 32 mini-jeux.
​
Retravailler les Mini-jeux
Lors de la pré-production. Nous avons du modifier une bonne partie des environnements selon la demande des ayants droits. J'ai donc retravaillé certains gameplay pour les adapter à leur nouveaux décors.
​
Suivre la mise en place et la réalisation des Mini-jeux
J'étais présent lors de toute la phase de production et de polish pour soumettre des modifications et des améliorations sur les Mini-jeux afin de leur garantir un bon niveau de qualité.
​
Mode Lasagna Race
Après avoir terminé les mini-jeux je me suis attelé à la réalisation du mode lasagna Party. Je me suis inspiré des plateaux de Mario Party et du Monopoly pour obtenir un jeu amusant et qui n'est pas trop aléatoire.
​
Équilibrage des Mini-jeux et ajustement des différentes difficultés de jeu
Pour finir, je me suis occuper d'ajuster les données relatives à la difficulté des Mini-jeux pour que les IAs ne soient ni insurmontables ni trop faciles à affronter..

Mode Lasagna Race
Principle of the game
The principle of the game is to navigate a board divided into several squares. On his turn, each player rolls his die and moves forward as many squares as the result obtained.
As in the Goose Game, each square triggers an effect an effect when a player completes movement on it. When all players have completed their turn, a mini-game mini-game is chosen and the 4 players compete in it.
​
Rhythm
The game is turn-based, as in Mario Party, but players can interact with each other during their opponents' turns using objects.
​
Rounds
The number of rounds is chosen before the game starts, but the game has a minimum of 10 rounds. This implies that each player will roll his or her die a minimum of 10 times and take part in at least 10 different mini-games.
​
Goal of the game
The goal of the game is to be the player with the most Lasagna at the end of the last round. Lasagnas can be obtained by completing mini-games, but also with effects on the game board or with event cards.
​
Players
This mode is played locally by 1 to 4 players

There are 3 different dice in all, and if a player has a special die, he must roll it at the start of his turn. Special dice are for one-time use only, and can be more or less effective than standard dice. They are obtained if the player has completed his previous turn on certain special squares.
