My name is Daphne Bergman, and I'm a 23 year old artist and writer from Southern California. I specialize in character creation and fantasy writing, and have been working to apply my skills within the realm of video games. I have a minor in Interactive Media and Game Design from Loyola Marymount University and am currently working on a second minor in Animation. I look forward to continuing my artistic journey.
GAMES
This is a five minute long visual novel game, put together solely by me as a part of a passion project I'm currently working on. Playing as a detective, you interview three coworkers on the whereabouts of a missing person that all three of them know. Certain information can only be found through certain dialogue branches, and I'm currently working to develop more characters and multiple endings. The coding, sprites, and story were created by me, made using the software Ren'Py.
I developed this game on Unreal Engine in collaboration with a friend. My friend assisted in some of the coding, but I completely designed the environment and created all the puzzles and audio design. The audio design included indentifying the appropriate clip, slowing it down, and adding translatable morse code messages. Playing as a small child, you must find your way out of the small house you find yourself trapped in. A walkthrough video of the game can be found below.
This game was created as a final project for my game design class at Loyola Marymount University. Using the software Twine, I created an interactive choose-your-own-adventure style game with four different endings and multiple secrets hidden throughout. It follows the story of a boy named Casey as he makes his way around the streets of London. He is on the run and looking for a way out. In order to download and play this game, you must have a browser that can read html files properly, such as Firefox. Pictured below is the sequence of modules used to create the chain of events, as well as a few screenshots.
ARTWORK
All pieces except the last feature my own original characters or commissioned works. These are included to demonstrate my range and detail in character design.
