The Tongue of Doge
This is a difficult platform action game. The protagonist, Doge, can't jump, swing a sledgehammer, or even walk. He could only use his flexible tongue to pull himself forward.
Obviously, we learned from ‘Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy’, but the game wasn't all about hurting a certain kind of person. We were trying to find a balance between psychological horror and classic level design.
We learned Nintendo-style level design patterns. Each level has a unique element running through it and combined with other elements to create challenges. The entire game has 8 normal levels, 4 types of mechanisms, and 3 types of level mechanisms.
This game is undoubtedly challenging, and you may experience repeated failures. However, with practice and experimentation, you will gradually master the art of tongue skills and gain control over your dog's movements, allowing you to navigate forward with flexibility and precision.
We are a small team consisting of university faculty and students. This work is not only a commercial product but also serves as an academic practice for us.
