Parker DeVenney

Game Design Junior – 2024

Parker DeVenney is a junior Game Design major with a minor in Creative Writing. He enjoys making things that make other people happy. He grew up in a small town in Illinois called Galva and had little exposure to video games until he was much older. He is now dedicating his time to catching up on all of the games he missed out on growing up in order to build a comprehensive knowledge of games. His primary focus is tabletop games, but he loves video games and the culture surrounding them. Fantasy, Horror, and Sci-Fi are genres which inspire Parker and influence his work. His favorite tabletop games are currently Dungeons & Dragons and Magic: The Gathering. His favorite video games are currently Stardew Valley and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. His goal is to launch a production company which focuses on making roleplaying games and card games.

Party Crashers as Designer and UI

Party Crashers is a festive VR experience where the player defends their birthday party from evil piñatas that seek to ruin all the fun. Piñata Hyenas charge the player while wreaking havoc on the decorations. Party-Hat Pelicans pelt the player with heat seeking hats. The Streamer Squid pulls all the streamers from the bouncy castle, comfortably commanding the backyard battlefield. Players will be taken on an arcade style brawler through the colorful remains of their birthday party where they will bash piñatas, collect candy, and save the day!

Packlash as Artist and Designer

Packlash is a two player game where you pick a random pack, shuffle it, and play. Each deck has items that give you different win conditions. Interactions and reactions are cards that manipulate the game to help you get to your win condition. You play interactions and items on your turn and reactions on your opponent’s turn.
