The workshop Design in Three Dimensional Space was presented by Prof. This is a student project created during winter semester 2016 together with Sebastian Schmid, Marius Schnabel, Yichuang Wang and Martin Wehl. Sounds now indicate the various states, from ‘main menu’, ‘countdown’, to the various ‘special spawns’ and ‘game over’. Epilogue Section titled Epilogueĭuring my fourth semester, I added sounds as part of the course „Audio in Interaction Design“. To keep the game from becoming dull various patterns emerge. Now the player has to show they have understood the basic principles. The pattern starts to change and random spawns start. A tutorial segment gives the player a few seconds to get comfortable but the difficulty rises quickly. Because of this we implemented special spawns in addition to our default random spawns. Tutorial and Variation Section titled Tutorial and VariationĪrcade games tend to be overwhelming for beginners with too many objects to focus on and true random spawns lead to boring gameplay.

The longer they manage to stay in the game the better is their score.

Every second the player loses points until none are left and the game is over. The player has to catch the balls with one of three paddles that matches the ball in color to gain points. From the center of the screen, balls start to spawn and move in random directions.

We chose to take a different spin to the classic Pong gameplay. Gameplay Section titled GameplayĪs an arcade game, gameplay was the most important part we needed to get right. Only constraint was the display should have a vertical orientation because the game should be played with a slightly inclined projection surface. We were free to choose our own direction for our game. Topic for this workshop was to create an arcade-like game.
