Engine

We are using the Unity editor

The actual game engine source code will be needed or will a third-party middleware

solution be needed. The code will be written using thejava Script & C# scriptlanguage and

compiled with the tools that accompany the retail version of the game.

Development PlanMilestones

1) GDD & TDD

Both documents are work in progress. The TDD contains coding practices and

at least a general outline of how to implement the gameplay elements described in

the GDD in addition to coding practices, tools, and risk analysis.

2) Asset List & Development Plan Complete

An asset list with all assets and completion dates has been created

3) Alpha

The behavior of character & enemies has been coded and their static meshes and

animations have been implemented and added to the game.

4) Beta

The all forms works correctly in engine. Any bugs since alpha are squashed.

5) Prototype

Final gameplay balancing has taken place. The game is totally compliant with

the TDD and GDD. The TDD and GDD have been updated if necessary. All bugs

have been fixed. Five CDs with the final game have been burned.

Software ArchitectureDirectory Structure

All art, level, and code assets will be placed under one D irectory called FYP Shared. Assets

will be located in that directory. This method keeps data organized and simplifies installation

and un-installation. The list below shows the directory structure:

Build

The game will built using the unity build editor. This build editor will automate the

process of compiling the mod and generating the .exe files.

Coding Standard

1. All of the Unity Script classes developed by the software team will start w ith GF. Forexample, Goofu.jc or Goofu.cs will be used.

2. Variable names will have their first word letters capitalized like Grab, Jump.3. A general effort will be made to keep the code as readable as possible using helpful

comments.
