GOSpiTe

GOSpiTe, a top down ARPG inspired by Diablo 3

GOSpiTe was our second and first long project with our own engine. 


"Leap into battle and use your rage to battle your way through Helheim to save your brother from Hel and her undying legion"


Our group size was: 20

My responsibilities were: Player.

We landed on creating a barbarian class inspired by Diablo 3s Barbarian class.

For this project we had to use a navmesh for our actors, this created interesting scenarios which had to be fixed.

Worked hard on creating good player feedback with impactful hits. Flexibility and creating changeable code with JSON made it so everyone could tweak and polish without going into the source code.

I also worked a lot on the enemies.

For this project we also had the pleasure of having two music students with us, I was responsible for implementing and communicating with our sounds student about the sound.


Highlights

Normal attack gives you fury.
Heavy attack comes in two separate attacks.

Spear
Long ranged projectile attack.


Leap
Used to stomp enemies and traversal of the land.


Avatar state/RAGE

Abilites in action

Reflection

My first challenge was to make it possible to move outside the navmesh with movement abilites.

The navmesh made movement feel stiff and sometimes like someone else was in control. To change this we made it so the player doesn't move with the navmesh but it was more of a guideline for the player.
This made sharp and narrow places hard to navigate.
