Magnetic Butterfly

Magnetic Butterfly is a game about a butterfly that was born with an enormous wrecking ball attached to his core physiology. The game chronicles the life and death of this butterfly as he attempts to knock enemies/point objects off of the platform. To do this he must utilize his natural powers of magnetism with the platform in order to target his wrecking ball at the physical manifestations of the butterfly’s emotions (anger is a mean one). This game is my first attempt at a full project using only the native features of a pre-existing engine and, at this point in its development life, that has been monumentally successful and enjoyable.

 
 

Cubegasm

Cubegasm is a real-time strategy game with an emphasis on action and explosions. A player is given access to five types of cube warriors which must be intelligently combined to dominate a number of maps as quickly as possible without undue cube causalities. Whether a player focuses on volleying enormous mini-bomb shells with cube artillery or, instead, chooses to throw squadrons of cube melee and ranged warriors right into an enemy fortress could be the difference between a glorious victory of a geometric genocide. Cubegasm is on hold/canceled but I have made the unfinished source code available.

 
 

Asplode!

Asplode! is a simple top-down shoot-em-up in the vein of the classic Robotron. A player is given three lives to score as many points as possible by continually asploding terrifying enemies like the quick-moving Kamikazygons and the linear-moving Bonzaihedrons. The one enemy a player has to focus on while playing is the Pentabomb which will create a gigantic explosion instantly killing all enemies in its radius and attaching huge score multipliers to their deaths. Asplode! was developed using XNA Game Studio and can be played on the PC or, if built with the available game project and source code, deployed to the Xbox 360 for fast-paced polygonal action on everyone’s favorite prone-to-red-ring console.
