Work Abstract
The Toy Box is an RPG title created using Box2D physics engine in corporation with C++ SDL coding framework. I was the head of UI development for the title, with work completed on the title screens, menus & more. It was coded from the ground up by a team of 8 people over a span of 160 collective hours of work. Game is complete with NPC behavior patterns, written dialogue, combat, storylines, and clean menu system. The game was created as a way to both create a fun, intuitive, and clean game, while also practically applying coding principles that we learned in our Project II course at CITM UPC.
Experience Gained
UX Animating
Piskel Animating
The project was created where players would be entering their inventory, settings, options & more through a book style UI element. This required animating with splines for a clean, page-turning like feel.
Piskel was used to animate the title menu. In the menu the screen flashes with the flashlight flickering. This was created over 30 frames of animation using piskel software.
