Where every solution is a plant

Abstract:

With an estimated 55% of households actively gardening and the "cozy" genre of games growing in popularity, there are a small number of video games on the market catering to these combined interests. With Botography, players can explore a diverse world with obstacles to overcome. The game aims to give plant lovers the opportunity to explore this world at their own pace while facing challenges that require them to engage with their favorite hobby.

Description:

Botography is a cozy 2D adventure-exploration game where you are a Botanist, navigating a whimsical uncharted forest in the hope of finding the treasured Panacean Plants. As you explore, you'll gather materials and combine them together to create unique plant variants that when used in the game world, allow the player to overcome any obstacles barring their exploration progress! This project is a joint project with 8 Digital Media students and 2 Music Industry students at Drexel's Westphal College of Media Arts and Design. Thank you to our Westphal team: - Eric Andreski - Heath Bailey - E Berlin - Sienna Bigelow - Riley Chiang - Theresa Merritt - Ben Naab - Everest Robinson - Serena Shafer - Conor Stewart
