Today’s the day! Well, not the day, but a day. The day we get to show off our hard work into an actual playable demo! Today is exciting and we’ve been dedicating hours on end into creating something that would soon resemble our final product. Thanks to the team, we were able to present enemies detecting the player if heard or seen, have our player run around and use its abilities via button inputs (and external controllers such as an Xbox controller😉).
And might I also say, the level design and U.I. was gorgeous! Overall the professor and the class enjoyed our demo. At one point, someone literally handed us an Xbox controller to test our game while presenting. Just straight up threw us one. It was awesome and it was the first time seeing our game run on a controller other than the keyboard.
Afterwards, we were bombarded by questions and quite a lot of constructive criticism from the professor which we took into heart and help fine tune our demo and overall game. I call this a success, now onto the rest of development!
