The Governor

[Feb-May 2004]

[University Project]

 Written as a group project, from design to prototype, with 5 others, we focused on creating an API independent engine, this version contains only the OpenGL renderer, but a DirectX version was added after the project deadline.
The other members of the team took the engine on to success, winning in the 2004 Dare To Be Digital Competition, with their game "Pixie Dust", I had moved to Japan at this point so was unable to compete.
Components completed by myself are:
Camera, Spring functions for camera, Particle Engine, Level Editor, AI, Gameplay code

Mouse: Direction / pitch
WASD: Lock on to targeted enemy
Space: Fire (Rockets at distant enemies, Lasers at close enemies)
Pc / Open GL / Visual Studio 6

You play a purple cube which must roll around the playfield, flipping the ground tiles over (from green to red and back), with the aim of restoring them all to green. The basics are similar to a Lights Out game, but the gameplay is quite different.
