Overview
Starting 2016, I decided to start exploring game design which was something I had been interested in learning for a long time. I spent any free time I had in between school work and internships taking the time to learn the ins and outs of Unity. Once I felt sufficiently confident in my knowledge, I decided to put it to use by bringing to life some of my favorite stories of Indian Mythology that my family had told me growing up. None of these stories inspired me more than that of Lord Hanuman, the powerful Hindu god of devotion, famous for his strength, ability to change size and incredible knowledge. I combined this concept to develop a gaming application through Unity that encourages Indian culture (using the Hanuman character) and integrate fun into the game. This is my first published game and I will continue to improve it and make it accessible through other mediums while honing my skills by creating more games. I will continue to heavily feature Hindu mythology in my future games like I am in my current projects with the hopes of cultivating the excitement for kids today that I had growing up with Hindu culture and hoping to get a lot of positive feedback from the users

1) Who is the hero and villain in the story?
2) What are the strategies that the hero would use to defeat the villain
3) How will the hero achieve victory?
