Barn Escape
An introduction to Game Development & Design turned into a silly game.
Have you ever dreamt of being a goat strapped to a jetpack? Then this is the game for you. Within this game you navigate a barn environment in a desperate attempt to attain freedom.
While making this game I learned a lot about programming in the Unity Engine. The graphics were not the main focus of the game but still give it a nice theme.

Pildora the GOAT
This is Pildora, she is absolutely done living on a farm because she does not get enough fed enough yummy jet fuel. Pildora wants to escape, she comes up with a breakout plan.
During a blue moon she stole an experimental jetpack from the farmkeeper, who definitely does not have a secret identity as a crazy rocket scientist in disguise.
Using the stolen jetpack, she plans to break out of the barn by avoiding evil red spheres of doom. Will her goat indestructibility and determination set her free? Only the player can decide. With Skill
Modular Barn Pieces
To quickly create an environment within 2 hours I decided to make one set of modular pieces to build a level with.
For inspiration, I decided on the typical American red barns. You see lots of those using similar architecture in games and cartoons, they have become associated with the word "barn" in people all over the world.
I decided to play it the smart by modelling the pieces in the shape of a 1:1 plane (see image). This way, I could best optimize all the pieces to fit perfectly within the texture, without wasting much UV space.
