Revision as of 01:29, 26 September 2022

Mother: The Video Game was developed in Spring 2019 as the final project for a Media Device Architecture class at Georgia Tech.

It is a pixel platformer whose theme came from the universe of Mother, an original science fiction by Joey Bishop deeply rooted in 80s nostalgia.
