Student projects are added irregularly and in no particular order. These are projects stretching back to 2002, from students in their 1st, 2nd and 3rd year and using vastly different tech. Thus; we recommend you use the tag cloud to the right to filter the projects you’re interested in!
“Descend into Madness” is a rogue-like, dungeon delve-style game that offers a challenging experience where you fight different enemies with your skill, spells and choices that determine whether the adventurer emerges victorious or succumb to the madness…
Pump these balloons to new heights with the power of friendship, cooperation, and two literal pumps, while avoiding the winged terrors of the sky! In Two Balloons Disarray, a co-operative arcade game, you and your friend (or business associate, enemy – the choice is yours) will control pumps allowing you to breathe life into a pair of balloons tied together on screen. Your common goal is to make your way through an open sky obstructed merely by a flock of fickle birds hellbent on stopping whatever it is you really wanted to do.
Two balloons disarray was developed using unity for an arcade experience; the controllers were engineered using bike pumps, mouses, buttons, an arduino, and other implements. While our primary goal was to provide a fun cooperative arcade experience, we see potential in our game for future IOS and Android adaptation too.
Four Flipper Forest is a 2D pinball inspired climbing game made in Unity for PC, where the player ascends from the ruins of an ancient civilization.

The player must make clever use of their environment to reach the top as fast as possible and compete for the top of the leaderboard!
