Development Process

Idea & Planning

Our team brainstormed ideas and quickly settled on a concept that could be fun yet achievable within the time limit.

Implementation

The core mechanics were built using Unity & C#, with assets created in jsfxr & Asesprite. We used GitHub for version control and worked in sprints to stay on track.

Challenges & Solutions

One of the biggest challenges was implementing smooth physics-based movement. We overcame this by fine-tuning the Rigidbody parameters in Unity and leveraging Unity’s physics engine.
