Stellar Repair

In Stellar Repair, you and a friend collaborate to reach a high score and achieve bragging rights. Cooperation and communication are integral as you take turns giving instructions to repair the spaceship. Each task will award you a set amount of points depending on how fast you complete them, and when the five minute timer runs out, your final score will be displayed. The actual build is a model of a UFO, with various inputs like buttons, wires, and levers scattered around. Tasks range from pulling levers, pushing buttons, navigating mazes, and more! In technicality, the whole game functions as a collaborative set of microgames that must be completed as quickly and accurately as possible to achieve the high score.

Joust Royale

Experience a new kind of jousting in Joust Royale! Battle up to four players locally on your couch in this comically twisted version of medieval jousting. Shields up, lance up and mount a gastropod to become victorious. Royal Features: – Charge at your opponents, aim, and strike them with your lance! – Precisely time a powerful swing of your shield to SHATTER your opponent’s lance! – Fabulously customize your mighty gastropod riding knight to your heart’s content! – Explore different game modes with special rules. Find the game mode that you enjoy the most. Could it be stealing plumes from each other, playing until the last man standing, or maybe capturing the golden plume? You joust, you decide! – Saddle up! Not on horses! Riding horses in games is for the common people and we true knights will go riding on speedy-shelled gastropods or snails as you can also call them.

Force of Nature

This game is a 2D character action game with minor platforming but centred on comboing attacks with element-based abilities. It is a level-based game however this is a vertical slice project so will be displaying one finished and polished level at GGC. You play as an unnamed character who caused the world to go into chaos after stealing a vital artifact from an abandoned temple belonging to mother nature. Upon touch, the artifact transforms into a whip and wraps itself around the character, making itself a part of them. The environment around them has turned hostile because of your actions and the only way to stop the destruction of earth is for you to die. You can use the whip as a melee attack but pair it with each of your abilities to cause further damage output and other secret abilities for you to learn.
