AUGUST

Developer Notes

Hello! My name is Chun Tat Chan. I'm currently a Sophomore at San Francisco State majoring in Computer Science. I started developing game a little more than a year ago and I've been enjoying it ever since. AUGUST is a solo project of mine that I started last summer in addition to other projects that I'm working on with a small student team at a youth program called Gameheads. On the development team, I'm the Programmer and Game Designer using Unity as the primary game engine.

What is AUGUST?

AUGUST is a game about a one sided relationship where the player is heavily impacted by the one he loves, but is unable to be close to her. The player realizes early on that he is unable to be with her, but his stubborn personality refuses the reality of the situation and continues to pursue her. The relationship nevertheless stays the same. She thinks of the player as no more than an acquaintance. Soon, the player and the girl will have go their separate ways. It might be for the better, but the player doesn’t want this to happen, or at the very least… say goodbye like this.

What is the Gameplay?

The majority of the game is a text-based adventure where the player can make small decisions that affect the outcome. The other parts consist of simple first person platforming in order to progress through the story.
