Parrot Shooting Frenzy
Where the jungle is abundant, local tribes have one great desire: parrot feathers.
This is a First Player Shooter mini game where you shoot parrots with blow darts to collect points, and their famous feathers.
Project background
Parrot Shooting Frenzy was created as a personal project to explore an idea for a bigger jungle tribe game. The intention was for it to be a mini game where you could collect feather and coins and use this elsewhere.
A key feature of interest was to use new methods such as events and random drop item chance after hitting an enemy parrot. Furthermore I wanted to focus more on the creative aspect such as creating UI assets in the Adobe Suite and working within Blender on 3D models.
