About The Game

Hook, Line, and Axe is a single player hack-and-slash parkour game where you play as an Insurrectionist determined on uncovering a corrupt and tyrannical U.S. government in this dystopian society. To do this, you will be breaking into Area 51 with nothing more than a battleaxe. Talk about bringing an axe to a gun fight! Upon finding a grapple hook inside the military base, the Insurrectionist can become more mobile and dangerous than ever, chaining combo attacks while soaring through the air, and by becoming a force to be reckoned with.
I wrapped up the game with a team of six others as the co-producer, game designer, quality assurance tester, and sole level designer. Part of my responsibilities include designing and building levels that cater to the game mechanics, creating fun and uniquely challenging combat scenarios, maintaining a fluid and immersive playthrough with plenty of interactable objects, and ensuring each level plays smoothly and creates a satisfying experience for the player.
