Balance the Beam

This alternative controller game was made for the Alt Ctrl Game Jam in 2015. Players have to use the broomstick to keep an interstellar portal open and save the spaceships.

This alternative controller game was made for the Alt Ctrl Game Jam in 2015. I designed and programmed the game, using an Android controller attached to a broomstick as its controller, connected to a PC running the game logic. Players have to use the broomstick to keep an interstellar portal open and save the spaceships. My goal was to explore existing devices, subverting everyday objects and use them to invite players. You can download it here and there is also a preview video here.
