Personal Project: Remaking Motherboard -> Bridges

Why?

I'm remaking my Motherboard game because of a few reasons:

- One majoy coding error that disables a piece from being moved outright.
- The complaint that it's only 4 player and only with XBox controllers.
-  The pathfinding algorithm being way too simple and illogical.

That's why I'm going from this:

Original Motherboard Game

 To This:

New Motherboard Game

Here's what I got so far:

I've written a script that can dynamically rewrite the strings that it uses to access the Unity Input Manager. There you can also generate anything from '1' to 'as-many-input-device-as-you've-set-up'.

For mouse controls, currently it's only one. So any of the 4 players can be setup with the one mouse (or all players with the one mouse, if you want), but seeing as how it's possible for games like "JamesTown" to do it merits more research.

The keyboards are a lot easier. I've picked out combinations of keys that make sense accros the keyboard and made sure none of them overlapped. The you can plug in 4 keyboards into the computer and, as long as each player only touches his own buttons, play with up to 4 players.

Like so

Controllers are handled by unity's Input Manager.

Game concept Planetary base building.

Pitch: a base building game where the bases are set on circular tracks and must fight with each other when they pass each other.

my second GameJam, I think this one worked out way better than the first one. That meaning that we actually managed to make a game. Always a plus.

Our game was called Gravity Assist and, trying to keep in with the theme of maths, was about using gravity and command-line style controls. This gives the 'space-sim' a very challenging edge.

We had a good team.

Materials everyone's never done.

A collection of 'materials', such as 'instant noodles', 'half-filled wine bottle' and 'mug'. Mug's my favourite, good times making the glaze reflect properly.

An exercise for the Game Art Course from last year. A bit narrower jaw then the example I copied. Liked doing the ears, enjoyed those. Call me weird, I don't care.
