What-ever Happened to Ruth MacArthur? is an interactive narrative experience where you are in search of a missing woman who left leaving only a trail of audiotapes behind her. 

​

Explore Ruths richly detailed home  to learn more about her and possibly her location all while experiencing the suspenseful narrative which uncovers a grim truth.

The project was developed in 11 weeks by my team Changeling Interactive, a team of 2, which consited of Laika (Alex) Randall and myself. My contribution to the project was primarily the programming tasks which included:​

​

Game Funtionality: This consisted of the character controller, tape spawning and subtitle systems and object interactions.

​

UI: Programming the back end funtionality of the UI menus.

​

Optimisation: The biggest task for the project. To squeeze out 60 frames for this game, while keeping the same high resolution models and textures, I had works on reducing physics calculations, oclusion culling and relying on baked lighting.
