Mr. Bubbles and the Great Escape

Mr. Bubbles is a 2.5D game developed during the Global Game Jam 2025, with the theme Bubbles.

The player takes control of Mr. Bubbles. A tricky hamster who got stuck in a soap bubble, and must collect other itens stuck in bubbles to make his bubble grow larger, so he can overcome obstacles and escape the house!

My Experience

Mr. Bubbles was created during my second game jam, and it was my first experience developing a game with 3D assets.

For this game, I was able to create a simple and familiar mechanic with my team. We were also able to add enemies, that let us test different behaviours and outcomes for both.

We were able to define and create an schematic of the level on a piece of paper, to help our programmers to start blocking the level with basics shapes in Unity. Besides designing the level, I also had the opportunity to create all the 3D assets, and work together with the programmer when applying the assets to the engine. We wanted the level to be interesting — yet familiar— and to naturally encourage the player to explore more of the area.

It was a challenging experience, but also very rewarding.
