Rent

Try to explore the life of nowadays Britain in the Stardew-Valley style game.

How an ordinary person tries to earn enough money to survive and pay the rent in nowadays Britain.

(This game was exhibited at London Irish Centre and University of the Arts London Student Union)

Based on my personal experience in London for the previous year, this game hopes to recreate the hardship and difficulties both immigrants and locals faced in present Britain. This game is a 2D top-down pixel narrative and puzzle game. 

This game is also based on research about global immigrants’ experiences in Britain during the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.
