Survival of the Cutest is produced by Away From Home as a final year university project. Play as a naive doll, forced into a world of gritty survival horror when an action man bursts into the dollhouse. A love letter to old school action horror titles, this vertical slice combines classic tropes with dark humour and a dollhouse aesthetic. I have taken on the role of writer and narrative designer, producing a lot of dialogue and engaging with the voice direction.
