Description

Apocalypse Approaches is a top-down 2D rogue-like where time is everything. Instead of having a traditional health-bar, your "health" is the amount of time remaining in a run. You are always losing time, and certain things (such as taking damage) can cause you to lose more time. You can gain time back by defeating enemies and performing certain other actions such as parrying with the sword. Everything plays heavily into Time being a resource, as your health, magic, and build. 

The game is currently in development, but as of now includes a procedurally generated dungeon you can traverse, as well as items you can find to progress your build throughout your run.

Junk-Punk is a competitive 1v1 turn-based tactics game which allows players to equip modifications to their move-set for a limited time to gain advantage. 

Turns have three phases: Environment, Setup,  and Action. During the environment phase, environmental effects take place, such as scrap falling from the sky and decaying in value. During the setup phase, players have access to a shop and can purchase modifications using scrap, which go into their inventory and can then be equipped. And finally, during the action phase, players can move and perform an "action", which is specified by the selected arm mod they intend to use.

Description

Claw Game is a multiplayer party game where players alternate between controlling the claw of a claw machine, and living plush toys that fight against the claw machine grabbing toys. The player that scores the most points (by getting the most toys into the chute) during their time as the claw wins. 

Both the plush toys and the claw have the ability to grab and throw items, as well as each other. Points can even be stolen by a claw player when they drop one of the players into the prize chute! And, if a player so chooses, they can pick up their friends and form an alliance with the claw. Endless emergent gameplay choices to be made here!

Cordyception is a 2D top-down puzzle platformer game themed after the cordyceps fungus. The player is a fungal witch with the ability to possess bugs and use their abilities to manipulate & traverse through a puzzle environment. The player's objective is to enter a house at the end of each level.

Each of the bugs has 2 main abilities. 1 which can be used indefinitely, and one special ability which will kill the bug after it is finished, as the bug will have used the last of its energy doing so. In addition, the player cannot walk on stone, but all bugs can, so the player must be using a bug to avoid the stone loss condition. Beyond this, bugs carry momentum when unpossessed and the player gains height when leaving a bug.

Pinfinity is what happens when you cross pinball with doodle-jump. You control paddles that move up with a pinball as you continue to push it up into space. The ball can bounce off of bumpers, balloons, and other obstacles as your height increases, which nets you points that contribute to your score at the end. You can even get combos by bumping off of multiple bumpers while airborne! Once you lose your ball, you lose, and need to start over.

As a part of my curriculum in NCSU's game development concentration, I developed a game engine in C++ from scratch.

The current example game it compiles for is Snake, however different games can be programmed by modifying & creating scripts, and assigning them + other components to game objects in the game manager's startup function for either the server or client.

Features 

• JavaScript Scripting

• Event management

• Networking

• Multithreading

• Component-based object model

  • Components include: Scripts, Colliders, Triggers, Rigid Bodies, UI text, as well as some others

Technologies & Libraries 

SFML | ZeroMQ | V8 | WSL | X server | C++
