The Bubble Siege of Bubbleonia — a fast-paced, arcade-y 1vs1 prototype made for the 2025 Global Game Jam (Institute of Digital Games, Malta) under the theme Bubbles. Play as the righteous Bubbleonians or the relentless Bubble Corp, command an army of bubble-popping pushpins, and input rapid button sequences to race your forces to the enemy base — the team with the most successful sequences wins. Our 5-person team took first place.
Platform: PC
Core pillars: Reflex driven input sequences, local multiplayer (1 vs 1) playable using a controller, unique pixel art style
