BlockadeRunner
Welcome! - This is an early demo of Blockade Runner, a low poly sailing game where you attempt to sneak in to or out of a harbor with illicit goods. Your attempts to smuggle goods are not so easy, you'll have to evade detection by the patrolling ships and ever watchful guard towers or fight your way through.
Controls:
You can manage your speed by raising and lowering sails with the Up/W or Down/S Keys
Steer Left or Right with the Left/A or Right/D Keys
Fire Cannons using E / Space Bar Keys
This is a very rough vertical slice of what a typical level might be like. There are bugs that are still pending fixes but most of the game play mechanics are in place. This demo is meant to be a small playable slice to see what feels fun and playable.
This was an exercise in game development particularly in working with:
- Shaders and Shader Graph
- Lighting and Post Processing Effects
- The always illusive art of good looking consistently laid out UI
- Scene and data management
- Enemy AI including state machines, and predictive aiming and shooting
- Game theory
