unity – the megastructure development blog http://blog.megastructure.org tracking construction of megaprojects Sun, 23 Dec 2018 15:54:33 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.0.2 Rocket Research http://blog.megastructure.org/2011/04/rocket-research/ Mon, 18 Apr 2011 09:31:58 +0000 http://blog.megastructure.org/?p=404 Rocket Research is an experiment that became a much larger project than its actual size. It’s too big a game to be given the small scope I gave it, and the idea is too small to warrant expanding the scope.

The concept stems from my experiences studying physics, specifically the schism between the real world and the representation of the real world in theory. As a larger concept, there is much more to explore here, and it may be fuel for projects in the future.

Although not a long game, Rocket Research boasts its own soundtrack, graciously provided by Daniel Zoran.

All sounds were recorded by me from household items (except the Geiger counter; that came from the university lab).

Brawlalot – Ludum Dare #18 http://blog.megastructure.org/2010/08/atop-mt-brawlalot-ludum-dare-18/ Tue, 24 Aug 2010 19:33:25 +0000 http://blog.megastructure.org/?p=278 My entry for the 18th Ludum Dare 48-hour game development competition was called “Atop Mt. Brawlalot”. It is the story of one brave individual, who resolves to fling any opposition from the mountain, rather than give in.

The theme of this competition was “Enemies as Weapons”.

The physics are quite wonky, but it is “broken in a good/funny way” as one commenter says. I like that, and yes, I feel it was broken properly.

Links to download on the official submission page.

Also notable were Yoni’s first ever LD entry, and Daniel’s second.
