Video Game Design Portfolio
This is the multimedia portfolio of Geoffrey Rollins, game designer.
On this page you will find links and documents related to various game projects that I have worked on.
I have worked together with artists, programmers and other designers on all of these projects,
but I was an important contributor or primary author in every case.

Hans Hans: Leaving Loki's Lockup I created the initial concept for HH: LLL, and was the Lead Game Designer on the project. Loki's Lockup is an Adventure / Puzzle game similar in many ways to the classic Lost Vikings. In Loki's Lockup, players must coordinate a team of disparate character attempting to escape from Loki's wicked clutches. Players can only control one character at a time, and each character has his or her own special powers. Loki's Lockup has been played over 630,000 times at Nick Games, and has received hundreds of thousands of plays on Addicting Games and Game Ninja. The game was rated 4.6 out of 5 by Jay is Games. |

Earth Rangers is an outfit that fosters environmental awareness in school-aged children. I was tasked with taking some of their ‘animal ambassadors’and creating games that promote environmental awareness while also being fun. With a limited budget, I lead the design team in creating games which are based on classic archetypes; both fun and ‘on-message’. Games: Tricky Tides, Compost Crunch, Soar for your Supper, |
Wumpa’s World is an NDi property which is slated to appear on the upcoming PBS Kid’s Play service. I was the Lead Game Designer on all the games for this property. PBS, the publisher of the games, had strict educational requirements, while NDi wanted to show off the characters and environment of Wumpa’s World in the best way possible. My games do both, and are fun as well. |
