Study Notes
Game Description
- Game Title: Lumen Force: Sneller Than Light (subject to change)
- Genre: Top-down arena shooter
- Gameplay Focus: PvP skirmishes, last player standing
- Setting: Sci-Fi, players are equipped with futuristic weapons
- Weapons: Shoot light-based projectiles with different radiant power and properties. Projectiles can be reflected by objects in the scene.
- Projectile Mechanics: Reflected projectiles lose power due to absorption by objects. Depending on the object's material, additional projectiles can be created through diffuse surfaces or refraction.
- Player Health: Players have a health bar that depletes based on projectile energy.
- Game Modes: Initial release will focus on PvP; future updates may include Capture the Flag and Co-Op wave scenarios.
- Controls: Twin-stick controls; Left stick controls movement, right stick controls orientation.
- Arena Map: Composed of simple textures with randomly placed objects like buildings and statues for variety.
- Object Destruction: Objects can be destroyed by absorbed energy, creating smaller fragments that cause harm to players.
Technical Achievement
- Projectile Reflection and Transmission: Realistic light physics implemented through transmission, scattering, absorption, and reflection of light rays.
- Object Destruction: Objects are represented by voxels; when a voxel receives damage, it can be removed, leading to object fragmentation. Objects are destroyed completely when their received damage exceeds a threshold or if they completely absorb energy.
- Sub-Technical Achievements: A random map generator and AI controlled enemies. The random map generator will prioritize constraints like obstacle placement and difficulty variations. The AI focus will be basic, ensuring enemies shoot at players and avoid getting stuck.
Big Idea
- The text does not contain information about the "Big Idea" Bullseye.
Development Schedule
- Development schedule information is indicated as being in an attachment.
Assessment
- The game's action-packed nature requires quick reactions and decision making.
- The fast-paced gameplay and Sci-Fi setting will appeal to younger audiences.
- The game will appeal to players who like strategic thinking and manipulating the environment.
