🎄 Inspiration
Reindeer Food Tycoon was inspired by the joy of holiday traditions and the playful spirit of feeding imagination. I wanted to create a kid-friendly game that blends entrepreneurship, storytelling, and veggie-powered fun. It’s part of MetaBoo’s mission to infuse love, luxury, and immersive branding into every digital experience.
🦌 What it does
Players pick food for Santa's reindeer before he takes flight by selecting veggies in a short time window and unlocking seasonal surprises. The game teaches resource management and emotional connection through catchy music and playful visuals.
🛠️ How we built it
We developed the game in Horizon Worlds Desktop, designed assets in Blender, and prototyped visuals in Canva.
Custom music and dialogue were produced in-house to match the game’s tone.
Assets were exported via FBX workflows and optimized for mobile.
Branding and character design were refined for originality and copyright safety.
