The Thief Incident is a 2D side scroller platformer game in which a child dreams about becoming a superhero and chasing after the thief that stole his legos on the roof tops of a dream city. To do that he has to overcome a lot of obstacles like cats and chimneys.
This game was created for the 24-hour Jam of the MINFF (Media Informatics Flying Fish) Award from the Harz University of Applied Sciences. The groups for the competition are randomly assigned and have to create something for example a game or a video or an animation within 24 hours. Our group consisted of three people and we decided to make this game. The Thief Incident was awarded the third place of the 24-hour Jam category.
It was a great and challenging experience to create a game in such a short time frame, especially since I had not created any other games at that point. This was also my first time making sprites, a walk cycle and generally animating frame by frame. And working in this group was a really positive experience.
So I definitely learned a lot in that short amount of time, but most importantly, I discovered my passion for animation and game development.
