Week 7 and 8 Update

For the past two weeks we have been making more progress in this game project.

First, we all decided to split focus and look at some different pieces that we need to put together:

Landen decided to work on player movement and basic abilities,

Riley decided to work on enemy movement and behaviors,

Mulualem decided to work on room layouts,

and I, Alex, decided to work on basic random level generation.

So far we've seen some good progress. The player character currently is able to move around a 3D space with the camera following it, and is able to shoot projectiles that stop after a set distance and don't go through walls.

Basic enemy mechanics are nearly finished, and room layouts along with level generation will take a good chunk of time as there is a lot of work to be put into it.

Week 11 - Demo week!

This week we presented our first demo to the class. We combined all the work we had completed up to this point into a single demo branch. We had room generation by Alex, the player controller by Landen, UI from Mulu, and enemy AI from Riley. Overall, we believe that are project did well during demo day.

Week 6 Update - Project Shoveler

This week has been more slow progress, as focus has mainly been put on finishing tech tutorials to present to our class for the week, along with focusing on individual project. Mulualem and Riley made more progress with using Vivox, and managed to create a system where two users could connect and send messages. Of course the implementation involved several very barebones features, and this was mainly created as a way to get familiar with the assets before using it in our project. Besides that, still slow progress this week. Hopefully more interesting blog posts in the future!
