Rooster Run has been developed and maintained by 9 Computer Science undergraduate students at Aston University. Rooster Run offers a fun and interactive multiplayer which is aimed at audiences aged 7-15 years. The game offers bright colours and blocky text to entice its audiences, with the built-in multiplayer player mode offering you the ability to play with your family and friends.
The Rooster Run storyline comes from the idea of Roosters planning their escape from a Barn or a Slaughterhouse, the Roosters must compete against each other to escape, the Airplane at the end of the map only offers one seat so the first rooster to get there wins freedom and the others will be Sunday roast.
Rooster Run offers powerups such as lighting to increase speed and power-downs such as mud to slow the player down. The game also allows the collection of coins that can save your life as you run across the map. Rooster run will be available to our players on the 1st April 2021 with the ability to create lobbies and share them with your friends to join and compete against each other.
Rooster Run makes use of the java language with libraries such as LibGDX and Kryonet being used in the development of the game and networking. GitHub has also been used extensively during the development process to offer a workspace that allows developers to collaborate on coding projects in addition to maintaining versioning control.
