What is The Grinch Rebellion?

The Grinch Rebellion is a very simple, short 2D turn-based RNG game project I had made in just a single week time with only 4 months of game development experience.

I made this project together with 3 media design students I was paired with at the time who made all the assets you see in the game. It was my task to bring them all together into a coherent game with a start and end. I also had to do some media design work myself to fill in a few gaps last-minute.

The gameplay is very simple and honestly quite boring, but it was a massive achievement for me at the time to make a fully functional game in just 5 work days.

You start the game by selecting the amount of players (1-6). You and your friends then face the Grinch who you need to defeat. Every turn, you roll a die (d6) which determines your damage to the Grinch. The more players you're playing with, the less damage you deal. This is to make it more fair when fighting the grinch with 6 people rather than for example just 1. After each turn, the Grinch also rolls a die (d6) which applies damage to that player.

When either all players or the Grinch fall, the player is immediately sent back to the main menu. Unfortunately there was not enough time for a results screen.
