Exploring the Land of OZ Through a Narrative-Based Menu System

A menu system that showcases world building and characters for a narrative-based adventure game, following a twisted retelling of the classic tale 'The Wonderful Wizard of Oz'. The menu system hosts collectable journal entries, inventory and character pages that the player will accumulate throughout the game - acting as a narrative aid. This menu system showcases illustration and graphic design, creating visuals to aid player immersion.

'Exploring the Land of OZ Through a Narrative-Based Menu System' is a 2023 Digital Graduate Show project by Hannah Ross, a Computer Arts student at Abertay University.

Project Motivation

I was inspired by the work of Supermassive Games, as well as my own work in the Abertay professional project where I had to leave my comfort zone and design a user interface for the first time. This project builds upon a previous module where we were tasked with designing characters for a retelling of 'The Wizard of Oz', but with a twist. Since then, this project has been developing into a much larger personal project for me.
