Orbtangle is a puzzle game which requires you to switch orb positions in order to untangle all lines. Once none of the lines intersect a level is completed.

The game offers an endless amount of levels which can be played on three different difficulties (easy, medium, hard). The difference in the difficulties lies with the amount of orbs that are generated at the start of a new random level.

It is possible to save levels from the endless mode so they can be replayed on demand. The game also offers a set of campaigns with a few dozen levels each.

It also offers a fully customizble game skin so that everyone can adapt the colors to their liking.

The project is still in its early stage / a prototype - so there is not much to see, yet!

Journey is going to be a VERY simple and friendly survival adventure. The world will consist of multiple islands with different resources, weather conditions and little quests that will provide access to survival items, or passage to another area, upon completion. Without proper equipment some areas will become harder to pass or be impassable altogether.

The player character is my first rigged and animated model which I created in Blender. I tried to recreate a character that I found here.

Most nature 3D models depicted in these preview shots were created by @quaternius.

This project was implemented as part of the lecture "Introduction to Game Programming" of the Chair for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence at the University of Augsburg. The participating students were split into small teams and were supposed to put the gained knowledge from the lecture to the test by creating a simple mini-game of their choice. Our team decided on implementing the basic functionality of a MOBA style game with a single-lane.

We created a small single-lane map with turrets, cores (or nexus) and creeps. The hero (player) is equipped with four different spells of which the fourth spell (ultimate) unlocks once the player reaches level five.

We were required to focus on a core aspect of our game (e.g. models, sound setting, game-play, procedural level design etc. ). We decided to focus on smooth gameplay and user experience which was realized through our own coding. Therefore, most of the assets were taken from external sources and not created by us. Special thanks to @quaternius for making his amazing assets accesible to everyone.

Our team consisted of two people only – a group size of three was originally intended for all groups. The project was due within 4 weeks.

After weeks of devouring Unity tutorials and a finished game development lecture at university I decided to keep it simple and start small. For my first independent game project I chose to recreate a simple version of Tetris, which my mom and I played like crazy back in the days. My goal was to produce a simple, functioning and finished game with basic functionality.

This, I managed to accomplish. A handful of friends and family got to test and enjoy it too!
