Raider of the Lost World

Raider of the Lost World

– Raider of the Lost World is a 2-D platformer developed by Adrián Font and Dídac Romero (Links to both Githubs below!) for the Development subject at UPC’s University degree of Videogame Design and Development. We mainly used C++, xml and Tiled to create the game. We also have some Profiling working with Brofiler, use it if you want to measure time on different methods and actionsfrom our game!

Thank you for checking our game!

  • ” F5: Save the current state
  • ” F6: Load the previous state (even across levels!)
  • ” F9: To view colliders/Logic/Enemy Pathfinding
  • ” F8: UI Debug
  • ” F10: God Mode (you can fly and nothing will kill you)
  • ” F11: Enable/Disable FPS Cap to 30 FPS

### INNOVATIONS

(Features not required for the subject but that add something to game or present a good code improvement/investigation)

-The enemy Bat emmits its sound with Panning and distance attenuation! If you want to play around with how it sounds without running around the bat, you can right click with the mouse, and a sound will be emmited from that position in respect to the player. (Use headphones to experience this innovation, as if you’re using speakers you will have to turn the volume too much or separate them a good distance. If you are using a mono speaker you will not experience the effect under any circumstance.)

-The player has 3 types of attacks. One attack whilst stopped, one when going at max horizontal speed which will perform a low-slide attack, and another one while going upwards.

-Only collisions on the screen are checked, the rest of colliders outsid ethe camera won’t perform any operation.

-Only elements inside the camera are printed (except for the background parallax).

-Enemies have a Range of perception.

-When the player picks up more than three lifes,this forth is applied as a shield which will absorve damage of enviromental traps and enemies.

CODE SUBSYSTEMS

-MAP The subsystem maps have a secuence of funtions that allows to load xml file, this loads the data based in the different layers that Tiled a 2D map creator program has, this ones are, tile layers, image layers and game objects.Also the map module draws and creates the colliders of the map. -ENTITIES This module is the one who manages the differents entities of the game, such as enemies,and interactable items(coins and lifes). -PATHFINDING This subsystem contains the A star alghorithm which allows entities to move around the map from point to point,includes a debug functionalities which shows the path taken by the entitie which is using the alghorithm. -GUI The subsystem is organized as a tree which includes the code for the the functionalities for various element , such as
buttons, sliders, texts displays and other elements for the game UI.
