Inspiration
We are all gamers, and we have all always wanted to create a game. HowdyHack 2020 was a great opportunity for all of us to come together as roommates and friends to work together on a project that we enjoy.
What it does
Spooky Spy Mansion is a game where you play as a spy who is infiltrating a mansion guarded by a ghost security guard!
How we built it
We used Java, blood, sweat, and tears for the software. Our team also worked very hard to create original, custom pixel art for our project through Adobe Photoshop.
Challenges we ran into
We had extraordinary difficulty working with java as we made a poor choice in language. Furthermore, we all had to struggle with the frustrations that come with dipping our toes into code for the first time. As a full team of beginners, we tried our best to produce a barely workable project.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We hand drew every single image in our project, down to the shading of pixels.
What we learned
We have learned so much during our process and gained a new respect for game development and graphic design. We also will most likely continue our project as a passion project of our team.
What's next for Spooky Spy Mansion
We hope to fully develop the game and add the features that we planned to going forward. We may even try to release the game onto a site such as itch.io to make available to the public.
