Sweep Up Right Now


Sweep Up Right Now was made for NetEase Mini-Game Challenge. The theme of the game jam is '复', which means 'Rebuilt', 'Restore', or 'Recovery'. Our team decided to make a game about destruction and restoration. Because of the pandemic, we hope this game can bring joy to people who have to stay at home. So Sweep Up Right Now was designed as a relaxing and fun two-player competitive game.

I am a designer in our team. My main responsibility is to design the core gameplay and narrative.

About game mechanics


To better fit the game's theme, after discussion, we want to make "item restoration" the core of the game. On this basis, I designed core gameplay. There are two players, each controlling a character. In the beginning, in two symmetrical rooms, the player needs to control the character to rearrange the items scattered on the ground neatly. Later, in order to increase the fun and confrontation, the destructible is added. The opponent's item placement setting, and I also specially designed the design to attack the opponent and cause stiffness to make the gameplay more enjoyable.


About the background story


In order to make the fighting in the game more reasonable, I designed a background story for the game. The two twins quarreled because of some trivial matter, and the room was messed up under nonsense. But they realized that their mother was coming back soon and that the room was too messy. They would definitely be taught by their mother, so they restored the items in their room while continually destroying each other, expecting their brother to be beaten by their mother. Initially, we planned to make an animation of the mother's return and the animation of the lost character being spanked to enhance the narrative of the game. Still, unfortunately, it was not realized because of the tight competition time.
