A short & silly chaotic high-score destruction game filled with charm, control a chaotic Borzoi running through the streets and cause as much destruction as possible within 90seconds!Borzoink! was our GMTK 2023 Game Jam submission for the theme "Roles Reversed".
Our game ended up being the 14th most rated game out of 6,811 entries, with over 300 total ratings.
Theme: Roles Reversed
The role reversal in this game comes from the idea of a guide dog - reversed. Instead of leading your visually impaired, full-body cast-owner to safety (you know.. GUIDE-ing them)... You LEAD THEM STRAIGHT TO THE DANGER.BORZOINK! was a GMTK 2023 Game Jam Submission I worked on as a group of 3.
I handled the entire project engine-side,
I was primarily focused on:
- Programming
- Level & Gameplay Design
- Art Direction & Technical Art
Things I Made:
- Gameplay Mechanics
- Controls / Movement
- UI Implementation & Programming
- Dog Leash Physics
- Visual Composition & Art Direction
Things my team made:
- 3D Models
- 2D Art
- VFX
AnimationsThe aim was to create a silly game that would make people laugh.
This was made in the Unity Engine using C#.
3D Models were made in Blender.
My biggest challenge developing this project was coming up with a solution for dragging the owner around attached to a lead while also keeping the game feel fun.I tried using different joint methods initially but they were not providing the results I was looking for.In the end I was able to create a solution for the leash by utilizing a range of capsules rigged using the Unity Animation Rigging package and the Damped Transform Components, once I had this setup I was able to create the visuals using a simple script and Line Renderer.
