Installation Wizard is a narrative visual novel game project centered around the themes of intergenerational communication and how to have a better dialog with people from different backgrounds than your own. The game showcases how different methods of communication can be stronger or weaker at conveying different types of information, and reflects how different shades of emotion, detail, or convenience can affect the mode someone uses to speak to you.
As director of Installation Wizard, I have been managing a team of 25+ volunteers to collaborate on this year-long thesis project involving scheduling, documentation, and regular meetings with advisors from the games industry. I maintain a strong team culture of collaboration and self-care, to ensure our volunteers work efficiently while avoiding stress and burnout. We scope down frequently and keep our process agile so that we can accomodate feedback from playtesters, and industry advisors alike.
