Banana Man: Banana Man’s Struggle is a chaotic platforming game with the goal of collecting 5 monkeys through the level. The player suffers from random effects and random weather effects every 5 seconds.
My Contributions
I was solo tech for this project.
I worked on the random events that effect the player, the weather effects, respawning, collectables, post processing and UI widgets.
Outcomes
Successfully implemented all design goals.
Gained experienced working with custom skeletal meshes and animations.
Created a timed system that loops for random effects.
Critique
Banana Form handles weirdly with physics which can cause player frustration, if I were making it again I’d look at other ways of implementing it.
Some of the jumping and platforming controls don’t handle as smoothly as they should.
