Project Overview
The vision for Hue Together is to create a delightful and engaging two-player cooperative puzzle-platformer, reminiscent of classics like _Fireboy & Watergirl_. As a group project for a university "Mediaengineering" course, it was designed to challenge players' communication and teamwork skills through intuitive, color-based mechanics. Its charming and tangible "desktop world" art style, where characters and levels are made of paper and office supplies, aims to provide a warm and accessible experience for all ages.
