Description

TANKS! IDENTITY explores the idea of game altering starting with the game's origins. With 3 different iterations, TANKS! IDENTITY displays what its like to alter the games core aspects such as; Lights, Camera, Sound, and Level Art. The result? 3 'TANKS!' games all different from one another following the idea of how one would personify a tank given the environment it's in. Each iteration sets the player in a new experience all while showing them a game they can recognize.

The Games

1. TANKS! Darkness Falls

2. TANKS! Flatliner

3. Super TANK Bros.

History

TANKS! IDENTITY was realized through the Pippin Barr's course CART 415 Game Studio 1. The initial idea of the project was to create 3 different iterations of the original TANKS! Unity Tutorial, each exploring different concepts Unity has to offer; Lights, Camera, Sound, and Level Art.

In detail, I wanted to approach each iteration without completely changing the games core aspects. I approached the first iteration with an idea of keeping the game's main goal of killing one another though being able to trigger the lights in-game as a distraction to the opponent. The result is the option of complete darkness with only textured spotlights projecting patterns on the ground. The second iteration is about loneliness and trying to bring out the sense of stress in the players, trying to survive with the impressively difficult controls of the tank. The last iteration was inspired by the idea of combining 2 or more games to create a game mod. In this particular case, altering the original TANKS! level art to have the aesthetics of Super Mario Bros.
