Synopsis
Designed during school holidays in 2 weeks. The theme given to us is "The Five Elements". Aquatic Order is a endless 2D platform game whereby the player need to survive as long as possible in the underwater. A diver diving endlessly into the sea depicts water, which represents one of the five elements. The button constraint for the design of this game is "Mouse + 1 button".
In Aquatic Order, player control the diver movement using the mouse cursor. While using the mouse to control the diver, player can press left click on the mouse to make the diver dash forward to avoid obstacles. In addition, the left click can also be hold down. If the left click is hold for at least 3 seconds, the diver would have a small bubble surrounding it and sound will be emitted. The player can then release the left click to release a powerful barrier to kill all the hazards nearby (E.g. Sharks).
Unfortunately, this survival game would not be as easy as it seems because since the game revolves around the underwater, it would be natural for the diver to lose oxygen overtime. Thus, the player will have to collect bubbles that is scatter around in the game to replenish their oxygen. If oxygen ran out, the player restarts the game.
There is a different variety of fishes in the sea and all would have different effects towards the diver and there would also be sharks chasing the diver. Players would also have to avoid the spiky rocks in the sea as that would results death. Collecting the coins in the game would help to get your scores higher.
So basically, the game is about controlling the diver and collecting bubbles and coin, avoiding/killing fishes, sharks and rocks. Sounds simple..yes.....Easy to play? No....
Do you have what it takes to survival for long in this tough game?
