Grizzhacks 6: The Game

Inspiration

Axiom verge soundtrack was playing while Luke was at work, coding, and an aliens beamed the idea into his brain.

What it does

Recreate Grizzhacks 6 environment to a RPG game that player can enjoy and have fun.

How we built it

We utilize Godot to create this project. We use cartography to map the Engineering Center into a 2D world.

Challenges we ran into

A lot... Spefically processor slowdowns on Mac systems causing 2 linux OS installs, and generally a lack of time to implement all of the features we wanted.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

A lot... We were able to get a 3D clone of the EC working in GoDot with a player, NPCs, collision, and dynamic map loading.

What we learned

Game development is very different from traditional script/app development, it's much more fun and playful than developing something more serious. We learned a lot about how GoDot works, we got to explore all of the different projects that happened at Grizzhacks, and we became much better at working as a team on git.
