The Way Home is a solo project designed as an educational product. The player controls a numbat (an Australian marsupial close to extinction) which has to get home past the problems created by human intervention in their environment, such as deforestation and bringing cats from Europe to Australia.

The gameplay is a simple 2.5D sidescrolling platformer with a little bit of stealth. Along the mound there are also termite mounds where the numbat can eat, and if enough of them were eaten there is a different ending.

My Contributions:

- Created the environment, trying to make it look like Australian bush land.

- Modeled and animated the numbat and the cats.

- Programmed all the controls and interactions.

- Created the UI and programmed it.
