Diploma Thesis

In my Diploma thesis I aimed to combine the beauty of a Unity game with Leap Motion control and a sound psychological background.

Link

Challenges

  • Since I got this brand new technology, the Leap Motion controller, as a developer and since it wasn’t on the market when I started my thesis, there where no available patterns or best practices on how the different parts of the game should be controlled with it. So there was alot of trial & error and innovating involved
  • The Leap Motion controller wasn’t as reliable as announced, so there was alot of manual smoothing and compensating of the gestures necessary

MineToShrine

MineToShrine is a Game of Three project where we aimed to bring a Minecraft-esque game experience in 2D to the S40 Asha phones from Nokia. Since it was created for Nokias Hackcamp, we had exactly one week for this prototype.

  • Huge but randomly generated world, complete with icy mountains, green valleys, hot deserts and deep lakes. How big? There are 3600 blocks visible when you zoom out, while the world has over 900000 blocks in total!
  • Complex crafting system
  • Very free and exploratory gameplay, while maintaining a quest system and storyline

  •  unpublished

Challenges

  • Creating the whole game in one week
  • Using only Java ME on very limited feature phones
  • Creating a Minecraft-esque gameplay in 2D
  • Building the terrain generator to create great worlds with different terrain sets, like mountains and forests and placing the level elements and resources where they belong
  • Creating a useful and integrated crafting system, interacting with the quests
  • Use the touch and type of Nokias Asha 303 together in a meaningful way
