Aztec Mining Game
In Aztec lands a mine is awaiting exploring. You must collect, and craft your way to the depths. How far will get?
Project background
One of my favourite game features in a Role Playing Game (RPG) is the mining system. I enjoy these particularly for the powerful and straight forward satisfaction game loop. The player walks up to a rock, breaking it, a potential item is discovered, repeat.
​
Another aspect I enjoy in these type of games is the crafting system. Combining these, I started a new project using the coding skills developed from the Into Games FastTrackers C++ Course. For this I wanted to making my own cosy, adventure game using a similar mechanic and as a way to display my UI skills.
Game Project
Key learnings from this project
-
It is important to consider outside of the box thinking when coming up with solutions to problems. The creativity of these can make a game even more memorable.
-
Combining straightforward game mechanics together can be powerful compared to more complex and harder to understand systems.
