Shaylin Carter
Game Designer
Alice is running late for her tea party and must first gather her friends—the Cheshire Cat, the Mad Hatter, and the Caterpillar. Each refuses to leave until their chaotic dining space is cleaned, but every room comes with its own twist.
The Cheshire Cat disguises objects, blurring what’s real. The Mad Hatter’s shifting moods limit movement. The Caterpillar’s smoke-filled room obscures vision and slows progress.
Racing against time, Alice must bring order to each space to reunite her friends and continue toward the long-awaited tea party.
