GAMES | 我的遊戲项目
Currently I have three shipped titles, on OUYA market and on Apple appstore. They are casual games and indie games. I've gained industrial experiences while working in Beijing. I tried to bring the industrial benchmark to my academic game projects as well. Thanks to my colleagues and teammates, together we made these products come true and brought happiness to players around the world.

Museum of Simulation Technology is a first-person puzzle game based on forced perspective. It is currently in development in our team Pillow Castle since January 2014. It was originated from the prototype of Albert Shih. It won Audience Award and Best Technology Award in Tokyo game show 2013, then nominated as IGF 2014 best student game. It was then presented in GDC 2014, ACM SIGGRAPH 2014 (Vancouver), IndieCade 2014.
If interested, plese watch a IGN play through of our earlier demo, or read some interviews from Gamasutra, or Rock, Paper, Shotgun.
We really hate to spoil the game so there is no playable demo at the moment. Hopefully we could finish it soon and release the game in about one and half year.
