Individuals looking for a short and relaxing game
To kickstart our path into game development. After being an avid gamer for years, our team have decided to make our debut into game design by being a game creator instead of a gamer. We have decided to make our game based on a critically acclaimed movie: The maze runner - with a twist.
To improve our skills and further our interest and knowledge about game development.
- As a person who is fond of gaming, i want a game which can play many different types of levels
- As a competitive user, i want a system to keep earning high scores
Players will spawn in their home base and attempt to find and complete as many minigames as possible while avoiding monsters and traps. The speed at which minigames are completed contributes to the high score. The game operates on a day/night cycle and monsters appear more frequently at night and traps are more difficult but this will contribute to a better high score. The player will be slightly slower than the monsters and can only outrun them if they sprint which will deplete their energy bar. Energy bar will only be recovered if they return to their home base. Also, returning to home base will cause the day/night cycle to change (i.e. if a player enters the base in day, player will exit the base at night). After completing a set number of minigames, the exit will open and the player can escape.
