MGDC GAME 18 - RACING GAME

The Miami University Game Design Club meets weekly to create a game from start to finish in a time-based goal of four hours. All game art, programming, and design is done from scratch during the meeting, with the self-imposed time restriction leading to bizarre and creative outcomes. Students do interdisciplinary work across art, design, development and more to learn new software, techniques, and development practices. Ultimately, this process leads to an improvement and showcase of students' skills in preparation for the game industry's demanding requirements and time frames.

This week’s goal was to create a fast-paced racing game where you shoot through the air as hermit crabs in pursuit of their newest shell! Hop on to your flying beach towel and zoom past sand castles and the like as you dart past your opponents to claw your way to the finish line!
