Potat is a platformer game about rolling a potato to its destination inside a chaotic kitchen.
Potat also won second place during the Global Game Jam Chiang Mai 2023.
You're about to get cooked alive as a potato! Don't let that happen! Do whatever you can to escape the kitchen. You need to make it to the backyard, bury yourself, and expand as a potato plant!

This game was made as a part of Global Game Jam Chiang Mai 2023 with a"Root" as the game jam's theme. We've interpreted the theme as a root-based plant, hence, the potato aspect of the game.
Design Process
Help other designers design a control for the "Potato" that the player will be playing in the game.
Design the game level with the path, obstacles, and how the player should navigate in the play area.
End Result Gameplay
Retrospective
Challenge
The main obstacle for this project is the time constraints that we have. Since it's only a 2-day game jam, a lot is going on at the same time, designers have to do multiple works as well.
What did I receive
Time management is what our group gets since everything has to be done within 2 days.
Game scope with the theme itself forces us to come up with a creative way to approach the design itself.
