As a tribute to Liu Cixin’s great science fiction novel The Ball Lightning, I wish to tell this interactive story through Quantum Rose, a game in an unconventional form of 2D platform and puzzle games.

About the game (click to view the original pictures)

I pitched the game to my tutors, classmates and some other industry people.

Check out the prezi I made for the pitch.

The game prototype has been developed further since the pitch. Here’s the latest gameplay video:

Due to the limitation of the game prototype (ludic sketch), the story cannot fully unfold in a continuous manner. But the designer’s comments will give brief explanations on the plots where necessary.

Download and play the prototype, and all feedback is welcome!
