Description

Catfish is a 3D horror platformer in which you control the restless corpse of a cat as you navigate a labyrinthine dungeon. As a feline, you will jump, run, and crouch through eerie hallways and shadowy chambers where every corner hides sinister creatures that roam and lurk.

The game mixes elements from different genres, mainly horror, platforming, and stealth. The aesthetics of the game are inspired by games such as Little Nightmares and Monstrum.

Contributions

I was one of two designers, mostly in charge of level design and game progression. Although assets were obtained through Unity Marketplace, it was my task to place all of these assets, giving the game its grim and eerie atmosphere.

Project Details

A prototype version of Catfish was originally created for the Global Game Jam 2024. The game was later re-envisioned as a horror platformer and presented as an additional project for my master’s in Video Game Design at Universidad Complutense de Madrid.
