The Protocol

📝 Description:

Welcome to The Protocol.

You are the unseen operator of a virtual simulation. From a control room, you monitor and manage AI agents, distributing limited energy between tasks to keep the system alive.

Make critical decisions. Prioritize survival. Observe your agents as they gather resources, recharge, or collapse from exhaustion. Every choice ripples through the system.

Developed as my final project for the first year of Game Design at LUCA School of Arts, The Protocol is a tense management simulation focused on indirect control, system optimization, and reactive gameplay.

🎓 About This Project:

The Protocol was developed as a solo student project for the Game Design curriculum at LUCA School of Arts (Year 1). It's a playable exploration of tension through systems, with inspiration from simulations, automation, and control-based gameplay.
