Progress

Saturday was our game jam where we built the first prototype for our game.

CS Team

• Basic controls for aiming and propelling.
• Add knockback on collision.
• Modelled a basic arena.

Music Team

• Battle soundtrack.
• Looping ambient wind noise.
• Collision sound.

Art Team

• 3D model and texture for our playable character.
• 3D models for an airplane turbine, airplane tail, chair, clouds, and a bird.

Discoveries

CS Team

• Movement in 3D zero-g is VERY hard. We'll likely need to spend a lot more time than we anticipated tweaking and tuning the movement to make it as smooth and intuitive as possible.

Next Steps

CS Team

• Integrate controller support using Unity's new input system.
• UML diagram for the game elements we plan to build.
• Integrate FMOD into our Unity project.

Music Team

• A few more tracks that fit the intensity of our gameplay idea.
• Otherwise, mostly on stand-by since the game is still in design stage.
  

Art Team

• A few more assets and textures for the environment and battlefield.
• Otherwise, mostly on stand-by since the game is still in design stage.

As a team we'll need to make some concrete decisions about our player character, environment, and theme.
