Project EXODUS<\/h5>

About<\/h2>

EXODUS is the second and final development team of the Entertianment Technology Center\u2019s first Yearlong Game Project. In Spring 2019, the first team created high-level game design and technical documentation for a single-player survival game with real-time strategy elements. The player should strategically move the survivor\u2019s home base, send survivors to gather and refine resources, and develop a plan to rescue more survivors. Along with a prototype, the first team laid groundwork for art assets and level designs. EXODUS is implementing the documentation strategically, building on the fundation left by the previous team. Our team faces the challenge of building on top of a previously built codebase while adding multiple new systems in a cohesive fashion. We are incorporating more design elements based on a \u201cfollow the fun\u201d mentality, letting playtests drive the game\u2019s weekly iteration cycle. The final and most crucial element to the design process will be in balancing the game until it is finished. EXODUS is also develpping the unique artistic vision left by last Spring\u2019s team. Their concept art portrays a somber, yet tense cosmic planet with bright foliage and limited consumable resources. With two 3D artists and two technical artists, our assets and interface will be polished and refined to a professional quality. Finally, EXODUS will publish the game on a digital distribution platform.<\/p><\/div> <\/div>
