Generic Schooter
A downloadable game for Windows
Description
*Disclaimer* This game is in early development. I say that, but I've been working on it for ~6 months. Expect bugs or not fully fleshed out features. The bones are there though, so if you like the bones, let me know.
There is no story to this game, you load an arena and survive for as long as you can. You can find an arsenal of spells throughout the arena, leveling them up and swapping loadouts to slaughter the ever-growing mass of enemies. It doesn't matter how long you survive, only how many enemies you take down with you.
Controls
Controls are currently keyboard and mouse only, but controller support is planned
- W, A, S, D to move
- Shift to sprint
- Spacebar to jump
- Mouse to rotate character
- Left click to cast the equipped spell
- Right click switches to aiming mode, with a reticle appearing to help target
- 1, 2, and 3 switch between spells on your spell bar
- 1, 2, and 3 also purchases spells and equips them to the corresponding bar
Enemies
This game will have a variety of units, spawning in increasing numbers and increasing varieties the longer a player survives. Different arenas will have different enemies in each of the 7 classes available. The 7 classes will be divided as follows:
- Infantry - Kobolds: Fodder units
- Ranged - Goblins: Fodder units that attack from afar
- Heavy Infantry - Hobgoblins: Meaty units that hit hard and move slow
- Berserker - Werewolves: Heavy hitters that move fast and go down faster *Not Spawning*
- Cavalry - Chimeras: Large units with a variety of attacks *Not Spawning*
- Siege - Golems: Very slow, very tanky, long reach *In Development*
- Boss - TBD: Special Attacks and Special Stats *In Planning*
In The Future
This is an ongoing project, with features planned and in the works. I started this project as way to test my ability to integrate Asset Workshop bundles and stretch my skills as a coder. Some planned features will be dependent on player interest, while others will be implemented by me to continue my practice. If you have any suggestions, feel free to leave them in the comments. This is supposed to be a power fantasy game, so go crazy.
Feature | Description | Stage |
Settings | Some Settings are missing, i.e wave controls As more features are added, they will get settings too | Almost Done |
Multiplayer | Join up with friends through user hosted games and survive together | Depends on interest |
More Enemies Types | I have a lot more models to animate and bring to life | Planned |
Improve Map | The current map is just a proof of concept. Ideally there will be thought-out lanes and areas. | Planned |
More Arenas | My map skills are pretty bad, so it depends on interest, suggestions and maybe even someone helping design | Depends on interest |
Siege Monsters | See Enemies section | In Development |
Boss Monsters | Boss monsters will have attack patterns and special movement (i.e. flight *hint *hint) | Planned |
High-Scores | Tracking the maximum wave reached and maximum number of enemies killed. If multiplayer is added, this will change to a leaderboard | Almost Done |
Saving | Save your settings, and high-scores. This one is a gimme, I have already coded it, just wanted to get a release out first | Almost Done |
Logo/Splash | Change the unity splash screen and application Icon to a personal logo | Planned |
Loading Screens | The maps can be big, and I want to code loading bars and stuff. | Planned |
You Decide | Gimme Suggestions and if I like them or think they fit, I'll add them to this list | Depends on Interest |
