Home Improvisation

Home Improvisation gives players a set of furniture to build, with one catch: no instructions. With easy mix-and-match mechanics, players are encouraged to create their own custom furniture. The game can be played both alone and locally with up to 3 friends, and you can share and find creations on the Steam Workshop.

The game launched with support for the HTC Vive, and later became a launch title for the Oculus Rift Touch controllers. It is unique in supporting local controller players alongside the VR player.

Home Improvisation was originally created in the 2015 Global Game Jam, and is The Stork Burnt Down's first commercially released game. It is currently available on the Steam and Oculus stores.

The Neighborhood

Platform Physical / Mobile
Completed January 15th, 2015
Awards CDC Game Jam 2015 Finalist

The Neighborhood is a simulation-driven card game which teaches students the importance of hiv testing, the value of preventive treatment, and the importance of regular ongoing care. It also illustrates the harm that can come to communities when important steps of the hiv Care Continuum are neglected.

The game is a digital/physical hybrid card game to be played by a class of 12-24 students (led by a game moderator we refer to as "The Educator"), in 30 minutes. Though the game involves physical pieces, it is entirely digitally distributable. Schools will only need to visit the mobile web-app, and print the cards in order to play.
