Uproot was made in Unity for the Global Game Jam 2023. The theme of the jam was "roots".

This game is strongly about culture. The background is elements of portuguese culture, and you play as a man literally fighting his roots. As he does so, the background dissolves away to nothingness. The game has two endings. The bad one, when the player fights, and a good one, when the player does not kill anyone.

The main thing I did on this game was the dissolve effect. The image to the right is the poor bidoof I performed experiments on. I also worked on a number of gameplay elements. From the dialogue (which I also wrote), to player gameplay and the binary ending logic.
