Overview
The Lost Pharaoh was my first game development project at Full Sail. Set deep in a long lost pyramid, the game follows a lost explorer who must survive deadly traps,
solve anceint lost puzzles and battle the undead within. Players will uncover powerful relics, like The Altar to aid them in battles as the challenges increase the deeper they go in.
The journey ends with a battle against the Lost Pharaoh themselves.
I focused mainly on the first-person mechanics, including smooth movement, weapon handling, and inventory management. While dealing with the weapons I wanted a little added challenge
for the player so making varied shooting patterns for each gun via pre-defined vector offsets, added a layer of strategy to the combat. This system made players adapt thier aim while
fighting off hoards in intense combat. Throughout the development process, I collabortated with my team using Agile work flows and task management tools to keep the project following effenciently.
Regular communication and clear role distribution helped us stay aligned and on task throught the month, we used Git as our version of source control to manage the code base and avoid conflicts.
Technical Implentation
- Developed in Unity using C#
- First-Person Controller - built smooth and responsive movement and camera systems for immersive gameplay
- Weapon System - implemented modular weapon behavior with unique spray patterns
- Inventory Management - designed an interactive inventory system for managing weapons and collected treasures
- Team management - Worked in an agile manner with management tools, task delegation and source control(Git)
What I learned
- Implementing and designing core gameplay features like first-person movement and weapon mechanics
- Structuring clean, modular code in Unity and C# for reusability/Scalability
- Collabortated effectively to maintain an agile work flow
- Using Git for source control and conflict resolution in a populated enviorment
- Problem solving and adaptability throughout the short time of development process
