Basic “Physical Simulation”

• Crucial for the gameplay• Collision detection• Ball physics• Power up physics

• Rope physics Prototype

• High targets– Deformable terrain

Rendering System

• Hierarchical scene organization

• Shadows

• Render Path Manager

• High targets– Shadow volumes that affect particles– Ambient occlusion (Extra)

Particle Systems

• Building destruction• Power-ups• Explosions• …

• React on space warps (explosions) Prototype

Building Physics

• Just visuals, no influence on gameplay

• Not necessary correct physical simulation

Protoype

AI

• Agent AI = Enemies in SinglePlayer

• Pedestrians for a living city– High Target

Functional minimum

• Prototype without special effects

(see demo in a second)

Low target

• 3D buildings instead of boxes

• Particle effects

• 2-3 simple weapon power ups

• Basic sound effects

Desired target

• Complete 3D content with shaders

• Overall look similar to concept art

• Shadows

• Music

• Balanced gameplay which is fun

• More power ups

High target

• Crowd simulation for cars and people

• The ground is deformable

• Single player mode with basic AI

Extras

• Advanced AI

• Ambient Occlusion

• Complex physics
