Plight of the PenguinsSummary
Plight of the Penguins is an action-platformer featuring penguin warfare, destructible terrain, and plentiful explosions. In this game, you play as Garrett, a battle-scarred penguin out to save his homeland from the evil Penguin Empire. Garrett is no ordinary penguin though, and carries an unlimited arsenal of grenades. Completely invulnerable to taking damage, Garrett uses his plentiful bombs to blast and boost his way through a variety of zany destructible environments. From cityscapes to underground jungles to giant watermelons, there are a plethora of unique settings to conquer. But Garrett's victory will not come easily. The environments in the game are riddled with perilous obstacles, bottomless chasms, and a colorful but diabolical cast of penguin enemies. About This was my first game project where I had to build an engine from scratch. It was a challenging and interesting learning experience. One of my roles I took on the team was being the graphics programmer. Without any prior experience using DirectX 9, building a graphics pipeline was exciting. I implemented sprite systems, batching, and my first ever particle system. The project also introduced me into tools development. Working with level designers and referencing other editors I built an in-game editor that allowed levels to be made and tested quickly. Contributions
