Conclusion:

A project with a fast turnaround. I created the concepts, mechanics, levels and UI. The game mechanics gave consideration to progression and optimal gameplay in 2 days. I am very proud of what I accomplished here.

Project Responsibilities:

Quick/Efficient Work: Created 3 working levels with regard to progression, unique levels and enemy design in 2 days. This included creating all the scripted functionality.

Leadership/Delegation: I had a vision to communicate and test that needed done, I worked around my teammates technical limitation and provided tasks they were suited to carry out.

Gameplay Design: The control of the game is simple and responsive. The control is mouse only and can easily be translated to mobile platforms. There is progression in difficulty, level design, enemies placement and design with thought being given to what purpose each enemy serves.

Level Design: While secondary to the gameplay on this project, I used terrain tools in unity to create strips of countryside, villages and military installations. I made sure that buildings that were possible to be bombed were highlighted as opposed to background and foreground elements

Image Editing: Collages of images, the main menu and level select screens were made by me to look like a military calendar and pilots table respectively. Made in Photoshop

Audio editing: I dirtied up the dialogue audio clips to make it sound more like a walkie talkie.
