Rent Week is a text-based interactive game designed to illustrate the financial challenges that undergraduate students at the University of Georgia often face and the role that privilege can play in surviving that dreaded last week of the month. I created this game concept with a partner during my graduate course in Emerging Media Storytelling. Together, we planned, developed, designed and ultimately developed the game using an open source game-making tool called Twine.
