SWIV - Remake
As a team we had to recreate a video game classic. We were given the classic shoot-em-up "Swiv". Swiv is laid out on one continuous level filled with strategically placed enemies set to destroy you.
We had a year to recreate Swiv with current graphics, without removing the feel that the original game gave the player. If it didn't feel as though you was playing the original then you hadn't recreated the game right.
Recreating Swiv as part of a team, gave great insight into how working in the industry would actually be. It game me the chance to work on the code aspect of the game and not have to worry about anything else.
I worked on the movement mechanics for both players, getting them to spawn in depending on the players choice and assigning the movement script to that character.
