OVERVIEW

We had a certain goal for this project, which was to create a working 3rd person hack and slash game where the player had to fight mythical beasts and creatures, of increasing difficulty, in one on one gladiatorial combat.

We wanted the game to play similar to Dark Souls, where the player is significantly weaker compared to his foe, forcing him to avoid, dodge or block the opponents attacks, while using windows of opportunity to strike at the foe and slowly whittle it down.

In terms of player customisation, we included a simple equipment system which lets the player choose a weapon, ultimately affecting his/her play style. We thought this would be a great addition, as it would provide varied play styles and ultimately replay value to our game.

Finally, we added a progression system, where defeating one foe unlocks the next, with progress being saved after exiting/re-entering the game.
