The GDAP Studio is a game studio within the school that occasionally partners with a few clients within the college and in this instance of the program, there were two simultaneous projects.
The SCDI project is a training experience requested by the Student Center for Diversity & Inclusion at Drexel.

We were given creative freedom in the "microgames" that we designed to represent the different tasks, as long as they were all featured in the game.
The ELC project is a narrative-based puzzle-platformer requested by the English Language Center. The goal with this project was to provide a virtual tour that would guide an international student from their arrival at the Philadelphia International Airport, through the city transportation, all the way until they reached the check in for their dorm. The project was based off of an existing prototype the studio designed using a click and drag word mechanic where you could drag actions onto objects and characters to make that action happen.

Additionally, I assisted in the communication with both clients to make sure we were on track to meet their requests and exceed their expectations. By the end of my time with the studio, we delivered two functioning prototypes that brought the vision from the clients to life. During this time, there were some notable challenges:
