Alliance (3D Space Strategy/Arcade)

[redwater]

Hello! I recently took part in a game jam last week and used only the Irrlicht Engine (with irrKlang) to make my game all within a week!

ALLIANCE is an intense Space Strategy/Arcade mix made for the ADL/The MADE Being an Ally Game Jam where being an ally is your only way to prevent the death of the universe (as we know it). A fragmented, space-faring humanity struggles to put its differences and constant infightings aside and cooperate against a threat that can destroy reality itself…

Huh - this looks pretty nice for a week work! Was this the first time you used Irrlicht?

Thank you!! It is the first time I've pulled anything out of Irrlicht that isn't a demo or a failed project.

Way before this game, I made two little "startup" demos (some nodes, some GUI, a camera, and basic input), a "fish-eye" software shader demo and a failed game (tried to implement arbitrary 3D collision from scratch and stalled the project ).

I hadn't touched Irrlicht in a year or two, but it's like riding a bike... a 24h refresh course the day before and I was set. It's a fun engine.

Nice work! Good that you finally feel accomplished (at least with Irrlicht).
