Overview
This game was created with a team of 20, divided up into groups of artists, animators, designers and tech. We worked together to create a game that was for our collab module. I was a Junior in this module as it was my 2nd year of university. I worked on the tech team by implementing the UI, Systems and UI art from the artists. I also implemented some physics actors such as the chains and banners.
- UI Implementation
- Credit, Dialogue, Level Select and Fade Systems
- Physics Actors - Chains and Banners
Idea
I was not part of the idea generation, as this was mostly the desigeners job. You play as a knight who can jump into gravity wells which allow you to change the gravity you experience. You have puzzles to complete by picking up boxes and placing them on pressure plates. You also have gravity ramps that allow you to walk up to another wall without a gravity well.

Controller Support
I had a problem to solve. Controllers. For our game we wanted as a group to make sure it had controller support to make it easy to pickup and play. This then included controller support on the UI which I was in charage of.

Level Selection System
To make this easier for designers I wanted to create a simple data table so they could add new levels when they are complete.

Options
Options have always been a harsh point for me, having to create all of them, and they were all quite similar. To fix this I could take in an OOP approach.
...
Dialogue System
As this was a team game, I wanted this also to be easy for designers to add new values through a data table.
...
Physics Actors
I was tasked to create some physics actors to make the world feel more alive. These included some banners and chains.
...
Credits System
For the games credits I could have made it so I manually added text for each person, but I wanted it easier to modify and add new people to the credits. So as you could have guessed data tables!
