Sign Wizard was developed for GEMASTIK 2023, a national Indonesian Ministry of Education and Culture competition.
The main idea is to make people learn Sign Language (ASL, SIBI, BISINDO) by playing games that use sign language as the game mechanics.
So, for the main mechanics, the player must type the ingredient name that is written in sign language, and they must memorise the shape of the hand that indicates the letters.
This applies to some things, like taking ingredients from the Chest, Brewing, Mortar & Pestle, and Solving Puzzle.
For the puzzle, I give the player a cheat sheet so they don't have to walk back to the house to look at the sign language.

Tetro was developed for Joints Game Jam 2023 (7 Days Game Jam), a competition held by Gadjah Mada University.
The main idea is to combine the mechanics of Tetris and Platformer since the theme is Retro.
I added some twists to the game, the player must control tetrominoes that fall and control Tet (the single block that moves around the screen)
