BEST GAME AWARD FIRST FLIGHT AWARD PEOPLE'S CHOICE AWARD BEST OVERALL
Inspiration
Nyan Cat! Also our love for 2D pixel games. We thought this would be an amazing opportunity to build our portfolios and gain experience.
What it does
The game is a pixel art 2D side-scrolling platformer. Play as Blep, the adorable alien cat, as you help him defeat the Bubble Defense, collect tasty guppies, and make it back to his ship!
How we built it
Nico Bisceglia created all art assets within Aseprite. Amanda Hollohan wrote the scripts and built the project in Unity.
Both teammates worked on level design.
Challenges we ran into
Amanda ran into a scripting problem regarding one of the enemy's colliders. We ended up pivoting and deciding to use that specific enemy differently.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Nico is proud of creating all the art assets! Amanda is proud of developing. She did not have much experience for scripting for Unity 2D, but with the help of tutorials and other online forums, the game came together great!
As DAS students, we take a class where we develop a 2D side-scrolling game over the course of a semester, even with provided script packages. However, we are especially proud that we were able to complete what is typically a semester-long project within the timeframe of the hackathon.
What we learned
We learned that when we are passionate about a project, we are able to accomplish a lot within a short timeframe.
What's next for MEOWTER SPACE: FISHY FIASKO
We hope to develop more chapters/levels!
