Don't mine the lava

What is "Don't mine the lava?"

  • Aimed for 2 players.
  • Cooperate with your friends!
  • Grab as many diamonds as you can!
  • Don't fall into the lava!

"Don't mine the lava" is a game targeted towards 2 players - one builder and one player. The goal of the builder is to assist the player to gather as many diamonds as possible by building pathways for the player.

But beware! There are limited blocks to build with, and the lava is continuously rising. How many diamonds will you be able to grab before you succumb to the heat?

 ​ Technologies 

Unity
 
A 3D engine that serves as our base for powering our game. Unity is a very popular and commonly used engine for various purposes, but mostly known for game creation. It uses C# programming language to interweave the various components, including, but not limited to physics, animation and visual effects.

Blender

Blender is an open source 3D computer graphics toolset that we used to create more complex models, such as the character and the diamonds. Blender is capable of many other things, such as motion graphics, 3D printed models, art and more.

Intel RealSense camera

A depth camera that we use to read data in order to build the interaction with our game.
