Overlays is a puzzle game, which was developed as an university project at HTW Berlin. The game won both the jury’s and community’s choice awards for best Bachelor’s project on the IMI Showtime 2019.
The game aims to teach fundamental image processing concepts in a gamified way. The player moves, rotates and reflects lasers in an environment resembling a laser puzzle. Using lasers he creates new images.
