What it is

+ A tower defence game, mostly created over the course of 1-2 months. Players can place cats to attack balls of wool rolling along a path. Cats can be upgraded with different upgrade paths and can be deleted to allow + for a partial refund. The tower system was designed to be easily expanded and altered along with a rudimentary map file system that allowed users to add maps of their own design. Although a functional prototype was + created, no artist was ever found to allow for a proper art pass or visual redesign so the project never left this first phase.

What I did

+ Almost all of the project was a team effort with I and my friend sharing ideas and working on the same code in a pair, swapping and working off each others ideas. I proposed alot of the original logic behind the movement + systems, the level select menu and the file structure for custom maps along with alot of the smaller features such as tower placement and selection. These proposals were built off by both myself and my partner as the system + evolved in complexity and scale.

EPQ Project

What it is

+

What it is

This project was completed for my Extended Project Equalification (also knows as EPQ). During the EPQ, a student will pick a subject of their choice, research it and then either write a paper or create an piece of media (an "artefact") based on what they have learnt. For my subject I originally chose physics simulation as at the time I lacked confidence in maths and wanted to force myself to relearn and become more comfortable with it. The idea of combining VR with this later came about in an attempt to make the project more modern so more primary research and testing could be done.

The end result was a system that allowed the user to interact with a virtual environment with 6 degrees of freedom, they could pick up, move and throw objects with their fingers, hands and head being fully tracked to the - real world. + real world. Due to time restraints, the physics simulation was released separately and ,although fully capable of location and force calculation, could not take rotation of objects into account. The project over all was + graded an A*

What I did

+ Over the course of 4-5 months I researched and taught myself a large amount of vector maths, C++, the design of basic physics engines, a large portion of Unreal Engines toolset, a large portion of blenders toolset, + a small amount of 3D rendering theory and the basics of game design for virtual reality. Using this I created a fully functional VR interaction system with many custom made assets, materials and classes as well as a + very basic physics engine. + +
