Xinyu Zhuge (Andina), Loong's Quest in Shanghai, Video Game Demo
"Loong's Quest in Shanghai" is a 3D platformer developed using the Unreal Engine, inspired by the rich heritage of the city of Shanghai. The game aims to showcase the cultural representations of food as expressed and transmitted in video games and stories. The xiaolongbao, a traditional Chinese dim sum, is the star of the game. Loong wishes to gain an understanding of the city of Shanghai before he is eaten and subsequently chooses to escape the kitchen and travel to different parts of the city in search of relatives who can adopt him. Throughout Loong's journey, local cultural buildings with distinctly Shanghai characteristics such as Lane Tang and Yu Garden will provide a localised look at games offered under a global market with the backdrop of the Shanghai dialect.
