Project Analysis

Lava Rising 2 was designed as a simple 2D Platformer with a single touch input. During development I consulted with several testers to playtest key elements such as lava speed and damage to ensure a good balance between difficulty and reward was found. Each "level" was tested to ensure players can ascend with movement strategy while being easily accessible to new players.

​

The game was built on the game "Lava Rising" I previously released to the App Store with the intention of updating the graphics, having a better movement system and providing better feedback to the gameplay.

RESPONSIBILITIES 

  • Designed the 2D Layout using Unity 2D Tilemaps and 2D Box colliders.

  • Concepted the lava and trap mechanics.

  • Made the game playable with a single-tap interface (Only input needed is jump).

  • Implemented a small UI displaying score and health.

  • Created semi-random level generation using a series of pre-designed "levels" and merging them in random series.

  • Implemented saving using an instantiated class.

  • Created the lava rising mechanic to always remain visible on the players display.

  • Created moving traps.

  • Created a basic animation controller.

Working on this project was a great opportunity to design a mobile game while also listening to player feedback on the prior release. I gained more experience in scripting, game design and mobile development.
