For my thesis, I decided to create visual development work for a hypothetical video game called “Coven Chronicles”. The story focuses on 4 young witches having to traverse through their own school during an invasion of eldritch horrors, having the choice to either leave and escape with the others or go deeper into the school to find out what’s going on and stop it. I’ve always been interested in old horror jrpgs and rpgs and wanted to incorporate it into my thesis and create something in a genre I don’t usually explore.
