Introducing Deadbolt

We are an internal team compromised of four masters students at Rochester Institute of Technology Game Design and Development Masters program, as well as a dedicated external team of talented artists and animators. Our capstone project, Cog and Key, is a puzzle platformer inspired by the renowned Studio Ghibli art style, mixing the steampunk concept with it's renowned look.

For our final Spring semester, our primary focus pivots towards refinement of our game: we created building blocks, now it's time to make it work in an actual level. This includes creating and implementing the art from our amazing artists, creating proper levels that include both puzzle and platforming, squashing our current mechanical bugs, and the refinement of core mechanics to transition from their current prototype state to a more refined state that doesn't get in the way of gameplay.

We invite you to join us on this journey throughout the semester as we strive to create a game that not only serves as a testament to our dedication but also stands as a portfolio-worthy masterpiece.
