Mayhem in Single Valley is a this fast-paced, puzzle-loaded action adventure, you’ll juggle housework, zombie hordes, family dinners and radioactive squirrels! Oh, and you have to prevent the end of the world while stopping everyone from believing it was all your fault.
History
I spent a year and a half developing Mayhem in Single Valley and devoted equal time to the game's story, music, sound design, visuals, and gameplay. No aspect of the game was treated as an afterthought. My work culminated in a polished prototype that gives players an early taste of how the game looks, feels, and sounds.
Mayhem in Single Valley moved to full production in 2018 but this time with a talented team of artists and coders : ) We built the latest version from the ground up and launched the full game May 20th 2021.
