Rock Game

status: Beta

Last Updated: October 14, 2015

Based on the Lego Rock Raiders video game for the PC. I loved this game, but it had serious problems. I decided to try recreating it in Game Maker and see how far I could get. I soon realized that the majority of my time would be spent making levels for the game rather than the game itself.

Your ship got damaged and you have to crash land on a nearby planet. Assemble a team to teleport down to the planet and start mining it for Energy Crystals and Minerals to repair your ship. Deep caverns have a limited Oxygen so you can't have too many workers in your team. And watch out for monsters!

Use the included Level Editor to build levels to be used in the game. Unfortunately that's about it. Out of all the stuff that's supposed to be in the game there's only about 1/4 that actually exists.

There is a known, serious error that has to do with the worker movement algorithm. I had to create a movement algorithm from scratch by myself. This was before I learned about the A* algorithm. My movement algorithm works for the most part. I never could figure out what keeps causing the error.

I don't plan to work on this anymore until I become more familiar working with the Unity game engine, and I can use a real programming language.
