"AZN" Group Statement

Hi, everyone we are team “AZN” (pronounced as Asian). For the final assignment, I have teamed up with Jackey Tran and Adley Yuen. The aim of our game of “snakes and ladders” was based on speed and chance which created an emergency evacuation game. The reason behind our aim of the game was due to the original assignment title, “Explosion and Evacuation”.

Our previous idea was to create stationary rams and have the players to run and jump their way down the entire building. Teleports were placed on different levels of the building in order to shift players up and down which enhance the difficulty of the game. However, as the game develops, our initial aim seems very primitive compare to other groups. We then changed our idea to “Escape from self destruction” which players will start the game from the top level of the building after trigger off a 5 seconds countdown to red alert flashing light and a 90 seconds countdown until self destruction which will kill all players outside safe zone.

Players need to travel to a safe zone located at the bottom of the building by using movers. Movers are like elevators which will bring players to different spots around the building. As mentioned before, movers don’t always bring players to right places. There are four movers on each platform, a sense of chance and luck will be experienced when players decide to use them. If a player do stuck in a place that is impossible for them to go any further, they will have to use teleportals located next to movers that will allow them to start from top level. A fan-shaped “rotors” are placed before players could reach the bottom safe zone. It creates a challenge for players move down as each floor criss-cross. Finally, as players entre the safe zone, they will set themselves to god mode which makes them safe from destruction.

And there are 2 cinematic placed at the beginning and end of the game. The first one was to establish the setting and for quick learners, understand the navigation of the map. The second was the final explosion, whereby the conclusion of the countdown prior, would signal this to occur and at the same time, force all players to stop at where they are whether it is the safety zone or anywhere in the building.

Task 2 Week 4

Ideas and concepts behind my X and Y Cactus Model

I went for two different styles and concepts for my X and Y extrusion of the Cactus Model. The core concept of my Exp 1 was about extreme explosion. And i have adapted that idea again both X and Y models.

In X% Model, I simulated the explosion ofExtreme Explosion are those explosions beyond our imagination such as Nuke or Planet Explosions. In Exp 1, i used multiple impacts to show extreme explosion. The blast of a explosive barrel in Gmod would trig multiple explosions around it with a smaller blast range. Again in Exp 2, i have used the concept of multiple impact and extreme explosion (planet explosion) to remove percentage part of the Cactus Building. Multiple impact demonstrated in Exp 1 which was a explosive barrel dropping from high altitude; explode inside a stack of plastic barrels and triggs another explosion above. In X%, this are shown by the huge epicentre located at the bottom of the Cactus Building when the explosion occurs. In order to show its extreme side, i have made the the epicentre hole and cavities similar to a planet explosion showing below.

I mainly used lofted cut for simulating holes and marks penetrated bythe blast. The loft cuts are cone shapeded as the blast photo show below.

For Y% Model, I used the flamable explosive barrels of Gmod as the key concept of extrusion in the Cactus Model. It is a quite different approach comparing to the X% because all the loft cuts are curving inside the building instead of straight cone shaped in Y%. The epicentre is located at the very centre of the building. The scale of the epicentre is very small since i want to convey the concept of extreme flamable explosion where the epicentre doesn't produce as much energy as the flame blasted outwards.
