Spine & Sauce is a casual arcade game created during a 2-day game jam, featuring simple mechanics and visuals inspired by the cozy atmosphere of a pizzeria. Players engage with three horizontally spinning reels that showcase various pizza ingredients. By pressing a key, players can stop each reel individually, aiming to align the images and assemble complete pizzas before the timer runs out.
Gameplay Highlights:
Rotating Reels: Three horizontal reels (top, middle, bottom) continuously spin, displaying different pizza toppings.
Player Action: Players press a key to stop each reel, working to match the ingredients and complete pizzas.
As the visual artist for Spine & Sauce, I designed a vibrant and stylized aesthetic to bring the cozy pizzeria setting to life. I created caricatured assets, including detailed pizza toppings and order slips, to enhance the playful atmosphere. The user interface, featuring a spacebar button, a timer, and a score counter, was crafted to complement the traditional pizzeria theme, ensuring cohesion between gameplay and visuals. The warm, inviting color palette and charming details contributed to an engaging and immersive player experience.
