It was basically the core of the work for us, we spent a few hours thinking about the concept for the game, then the majority of the time was spent on laying out the framework for the multiplayer aspect, some time for the gameplay itself, and then the rest of the time was spent making sure everything works in multiplayer whilst fixing some mp related issues, and then a few hours for polish and UI/UX
Thank you for the kind words, i too thought the gameplay phase should be closer to about a minute, though we had some disagreements and ended up settling on 30 seconds instead, perhaps with a better visual indication of how many points you get per kill and a score counter it couldve been better to have the full 60 seconds of gameplay, so in the future if we do add those we will also test out a longer playtime.
As for improving the gameplay loop, unfortunately making it multiplayer pretty much ate into our entire scope, and we couldnt forego the multipalyer as this was our Unity Multiplayer homework from class, though maybe if we choose to continue with this game as our final project we could take care of the more important issues and maybe even add some content.
Wonder if you couldve turned the coin physics into an animation instead with some variance in order to bypass the physics entirely and saving tons of performance, but ya, the time constraint is very understandable
A really fun mechanic, tho its a shame that gaining momentum is so slow and the rounds are so fast, kinda leaves you wanting more, but maybe in a good way
Very fun game, a shame it lags so heavily at the end game (not even sure if theres more content after you beat the boss since the game just refuses to register any of my clicks after dropping to 2 fps), i assume object pooling wouldve solved most of the lag?
It was a homework assignment for our Unity Multiplayer class, so we kinda had to build the whole thing in online multiplayer As for the fullscreen functionality, right now it doesnt, might add it in the future
Ya I understand how a quicker way to start the game for singleplayer wouldve been better This was our 2nd assignment in Unity Multiplayer class so we both had to make it multiplayer and ended up making it with lobbies since its the first thing we learned Glad you enjoyed the game tho <3
