Postmortem

For the final assignment in my coding 2 class we were tasked with making a short game that implemented everything we had learned over the course of the semester. Items, enemy AI, and save systems were some of the main focuses, which I thought would lend themselves well to an adventure game. Using some assets from FAB, I built out three levels of a sewer system and implemented wooden monsters as the enemies. I knew I didn't want my game to have a human protagonist, so I got a lizardman instead. Included in this devlog is a full playthrough of the game.

Enemy Behaviors Include:

• Hearing and Sight
• Patrolling along a designated route
• Attacking the player (from melee and distance ranges depending on an instance-editable boolean)
• Fleeing from the character and reporting their location to bigger enemies (for the little guys only)
• Getting frozen in place once the player activates the glowing skull's item ability
• Dying and ceasing all actions

Items and Their Functions:

• Glass Bottles that can be thrown to create distracting noises
• An axe that can be used to attack enemies (has a brief cooldown period)
• A glowing skull that can briefly stop all enemies in the level from acting
• Keys that correspond to specific doors.
