Development
HeLa has been developed in the context of Jeu Vide-a a trans feminist group of developers and artists that willing to set principles for what would be a feminist video game.
HeLa is our first production it is under a free art license and developed with Godot Engine: Hela / Jeu Vide-a · GitLab 6
HeLa takes place on an asteroid made from the cells of Henrietta Lacks who has served humanity by being used in medical research since 70 years. In this magical place the players discover the history of Henrietta Lacks.
The game play follows Vide-a Game principles of adelphity and collective construction and inclusion of the character to the game environment. You play several characters in solidarity aiming to heal rather than to kill.
The project has drafted 2 levels and we are urgently looking for support and people who would help develop the project.
We already have a good base design and the game play is fully though through, but we need to thoroughly rework the code not only optimizing what is already there, mainly we need support in:
- Code organisation
- Optimization of the graphics
- Physics
You are also welcome to contribute from other capacities than code, testing the game and feedback on it here is amazing. Simply bringing feedback and forwarding this information is amazing.
We are a feminist team and as such are deeply concerned by transfeminist decolonial accessibily and class struggle, we are working towards engaging with different human capacities in equity. We organize to bring mutual support and respect, and abide to Vide-a principles 4 in our daily interactions, keeping fun at the heart of our mutual interactions.
