Michael Amato
Lead Game Designer
Currently working on an unannounced sequel of a Turn-Based RPG/Dungeon Crawler!
Detective VR is my Capstone Project, required for graduation, from Sheridan College. It is a murder/mystery adventure game for HTC VIVE and was completed in March 2017.
Essentially, I was watching BBC's Sherlock one night while being an intern for a VR company and thought, "Investigating a crime scene in VR would be fun."
A few friends agreed and we decided we'd make it for our final project.
My roles were Design/Creative Director, Writer, and Producer on a team of six.
This game won two awards at the Level Up! Student Games Showcase in 2017: 2nd place in Technical Innovation and 3rd place overall out of 84 games, judged by AMD and Ubisoft Toronto.
