The Best Laid Plans
Studio: Slippery Rock Games
Role: Creative Director, Level and Gameplay Designer, Lead Engineer
Engine: Unity
Platform: PC
I founded Slippery Rock Games to focus on developing cooperative games. The Best Laid Plans is our debut title, a puzzle-adventure game in which players plan expeditions through a series of magical dungeons. Its unique twist is that all of the gameplay takes place within the maps that the players are using to plan their adventures. Featuring hand-drawn art and animations, The Best Laid Plans is like classic Zelda meets Split Fiction inside a David Macaulay illustration.
The Best Laid Plans is currently in development; some gameplay clips can be seen below. To watch a full playthrough of the current build, click here.
