Video games

A collection of video games and prototypes that I've worked on over the years. The breaking bad one is the only one that's anything more than a ten second long demo, if you're going to play any please play that. Actually Theseus and the Minotaur's alright too but I hadn't made that when I wrote the rest of this sentence.

Breaking Bad: LET'S COOK!

Game

Sudoku!

I really like sudoku but when I was on a retro gameboy kick recently I discovered that there weren't any sudoku games for the console!

So I made one!

With Breaking Bad characters!

I'm still not certain why on that last part, but it works!

Theseus and the Minotaur

Game

Theseus and the Minotaur is a puzzle created by Robert Abbott for the book Mad Mazes.

I found it while on a wikipedia delve for information about the Minotaur myth and thought it might be fun to recreate in HTML5.

It was actually a really good piece of practice for using recursion and the experimental structured clone method both of which are used throughout the path finding algorithm.

Dungeon Play Test

Experiment

This is a little playtest for a dungeon system I was theory crafting for a project that's going to be up in the air until I finish it.

Have a play and see what you think. I might change the maze up sometime.

MOTDRPG

Experiment

One night I started drinking and tried to make an RPG that would tie into a discord server and grab the MOTD from the people in there to populate the NPC dialogue.

It didn't go far becuase I have no idea if grabbing those is even a function in the discord API and the JS started having scoping issues that I was too drunk to fix. Also idk what I was thinking with the player sprites, please ignore.

Chrono 3D test

Experiment

This was a little game I made to try out some of the techniques used in old raycast fps like Doom or Wolfenstein in JS.

Ready? Stroll!!

Game

A game made for a game jam a while back based entirely on the pun "Greet 'em up". It's got a bestiary!

Pigeon RPG

Game

Pigeon RPG, was a short RPG project that aimed to make a very grounded RPG experience, requiring players to perform actions counter intuitively to RPG dogma. Also it's in three shades of grey.

I was overwhelmed by a really shitty job while working on this game and I had to shelve it indefinitely. I think it's been too long to go back.

Untitled platformer

Game

A little platform game about creating your own platforms. This one is just a scribble pad really.

Goblin game

Game

This is a small project I made a few years back where the player controls a clay Golem trying to make a Goblin a cup of Coffee.
