About me- KaRong

Hi, I am KaRong, a high school senior student studying at SHBS.

Personally, to begin with, I love gaming. Gaming meant a lot to me growing up, and it is a big part of my life. I found myself in games. I enjoyed myself when I’m playing games, but it was also more than just the pleasure. When I am often alone at home, I found friends whom I could accompany me in games. When I felt depressed, game world was my release. Games also broadens my imagination. I used to imagine games as a magical world. In games, I have been able to imagine things that I have never imagined before in real life.  

I have extended this interest further. As my imaginations grows, I have dreamed of making my own world in games. Nowadays, after learning more about games, I dreamed of making my own games, and producing the best games, and have people around me play my game.

Essentially, there are three main things I expect from my games - originality, fun, and expressiveness. On the one hand, I wish to continue to promote and develop original games. But I also want to more fully express myself through the games I produce. I believe that a good game represents its producers, just like arts and music do. I hope to really speak to my future audience. 

About this game

Exceeder is a 2D single player parkour game, originally designed for iOS in the resolution of 2366*1080. It was the  first proper game I made after studying unity alone in further details- understanding all the components and operations that needed to code a game. 

I was inspired by one of my favorite games, Growtopia, which is a 2D massively multiplayer sandbox game with side-scrolling perspective and where players could build their own parkours. I made mine too, and also played a great number of them in Growtopia. Therefore, I also thought of making a 2D side-scrolling parkour game. In an other side, I was pretty new to unity at that time. So this was an applicable game for me to develop.

I named this game Exceeder in order to remind myself that I need to always look forward and try to exceed the old-me. I believe that throughout everyone’s life, it is a process where we broaden our views and exceed ourselves from the past- in knowledge, in our insights, our relations… In Exceeder, the player moves a step further every second, and the objective for the player is to enjoy the simple fun of the game, and exceed their previous records, which is also meant to mean, enjoy life, and exceed themselves during life.

Game mechanics/rules

Exceeder is a never ending 2D single player parkour game. In the game procedure, the avatar would never stop running forward! The player need to tap the jump/ slide button to avoid hitting any obstacles. Double tap the jump button to double jump. Once hit, the game would end. Click the restart button at any time to restart. 

Try to beat your previous record, and exceed yourself :)
