Arcades and theme park games. The arcades are the first big game project, and thus games in this category are primarily built and developed by first year students. We recommend you use the tag cloud to the right to filter the student work.
Pirates vs Roylaists is a top-down 2D naval battle simulator for the arcades. Using steering wheels from real ships and thick ropes to fire the cannons and hoist the sails, PvR takes realism to a new level.

Forticore is a competitive arcade game pitting players of 2 different game types against each other.
Protagonist; As a cute bunny you will leap from platforms, over pits of spikes, through crumbling icecream caves as well as dodging airborne obstacles. Breaking down fortresses level after level. It is a twist on retro platforming games with real time interaction from the enemy side.
Dungeon Master; A unique spin on tower defense gameplay that will appeal to players of all skill levels. Your fortresses are being raided as well as destroyed, and it’s up to you to prevent it by strategically spawning defenses. With a Touch Screen interface allowing for a more hands on interaction and immersive gameplay experience.

When you happen to just fall out of a plane together with 3 other persons to a certain death, there is only one thing to do. See who can die last! Use all the stuff you regularly keep in your pockets (like anvils and fishing rods…) to ensure you’re the last one to hit the ground!

From Room101 comes Bedtime Gory; a bizarre, bloody and imaginative game linked to the fairytale world of the brothers Grimm. It is filled with well known characters such as Red riding hood, Hans and Gretchen and The three little pigs. Bedtime Gory contains four freestanding mini games, with four different types of gameplay and adventures. All mini games are played in single mood in a rushing, fun competition against the time. To conquer the game the player needs both brains and good reflexes.
