Project Reap
Overview
This project is a was in collaboration with a group of peers to create a functional 2D Platformer. Players start off as a identured servant, armed with only your trusty scythe, one must navigate through the forces of the rebellion, which are planted in your way to stop your advances. Fight your way through multiple enemies to build up your power, to which upon maximum unleashes your inner potential; the power of flow. Within the flow you become unstoppable, a more powerful force than anyone can even fathom, use it wisely to your advantage!
Gameplay
Basic movement on both the player and enemies are scripted to move left and right and jump. Multiple actions can be taken to attack, whether it be the left or right mouse button and activate your flow state. As you defeat enemies, you build up your flow upon killing 5 enemies which the player is able to use flow. After activating flow, you will move to your next target upon defeating the last one in a chain until there are no more enemies in sight. When that happens, the flow state is canceled and the player will have to regain their flow again.
Fast and quick paced, but also a puzzle in how you defeat all your enemies is presented to the player, granting a replayability factor as to how efficient, fast (or how sloppily) one is able to defeat all enemies in sight.
