Ready? Set. Haiya! is a motion-based fighting rhythm game, where players use an alternate controller, which is a live sized kung-fu wooden dummy as the input, and try to imitate various kung-fu poses displayed on the screen on the wooden man, to eventually achieve a high score. The closer the match is, the higher you score.
As a Game Designer on this project, I was responsible for hosting initial brainstorming sessions, and designing the mechanics and various stages of the game. I reached out to various music composers and worked with between them and our team to finalize the tracks. I also was in-charge level design, which in our case, consisted of breaking down the tracks into beats, which were then used to design the intervals for the various indications, and what those indications would be. Finally, I regularly presented the project and it’s progress to various enthusiasts.
Ready? Set. Haiya! has been showcased at multiple events, including:
