Whirled Peas:
The Pea Party
My first published game — a student collaboration where I handled all design and art. Touch falling peas, launch them in the right direction, and keep the dance floor jumping.

How It Plays
Touch falling peas and drag to launch them in the indicated direction. Peas collide to "wake up," then shoot toward the dance floor for points. Let one fall off the bottom and you lose points. Leaves block the path — collisions make them crumble, but peas reaching the dance floor trigger sun orbs that repair them.
My Role
This was a student collaboration under Peas Corp. I was responsible for all design and art — character design, UI, and visual direction. Programming was handled by Kenny Eitel using GameSalad, with audio by Duncan Iara.
It was my first taste of shipping something real — and it stuck with me.
