Wonder Elevator

Inspiration

I was inspired by a old roblox elevator adventure game that brought you to interesting worlds with different levels of challenges.

What it does

Wonder Elevator takes you into a world of fun with your friends and enemies a like. Where you can challenge yourself on fun adventures and puzzles to achieve cool progression points while exploring new worlds. You can choose to take the risk and venture out into the un-known, risking life and limb. Or you can play it safe and stay in the elevator until the next round.

How we built it

I built a very modular system of levels and challenges, using similar techniques of spawn pooling and level streaming to enable the players to experience multiple levels in one game, all while feeling like its seamless gameplay. The game code and design is structure in a way where I can now easily add more levels and updates at a faster rate.

Challenges we ran into

I ran into many challenges most of them I was able to fix with some complex math and critical thinking, but the biggest challenge for me was time. I hope to win some prize money to quite my job and work more on Meta horizon apps and games.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

I'm really proud of the gameplay and the progression system that we implemented. I was also able to add some more levels with exciting challenges that will surprise the player and make them feel satisfied when they complete a progression or a quest.

What we learned

This one was little more challenging because the map has multiple levels that are very large in size. So I had to learn how to pool spawn many assets and came up with some clever math to make things work as intended , while still allowing enough memory for music and player count. I also learned that I had to drop some of the progression features I wanted to add to be able to finish this on time for the hackathon. It was very challenging considering I had to juggle this with my day job.

What's next for Wonder Elevator

Coming soon Wonder Elevator will be more exciting levels and progression features to keep the players on their toes and keep the game exciting with new surprises and Easter eggs
