Student project - 18W_FinalProject

Eternal Darkness, created with C++, OpenGL, imgui, Bullet3, IXAudio2

Tech Stack: Postprocessing, skybox, multiple lighting, 3D mesh rendering, text rendering, fbx model importing, sound queue, resource management, scene management, event queue, debug draw, tweening, particle system, camera work, JSON file save/load

Note: In order to build the project on your machine correctly, you probably would have to retarget the solution to the SDK version that's installed on your machine.

Controls:

• "Esc" to go back to last scene.

• Menus:

  • Up/Down to navigate between menu items.
  • Space to select.
  • Left/Right to toggle.

• GameScene:

  • WASD to move.
  • 'I' to open inventory.
  • 'O' to open in-game menu.
  • 'P' to open imGui window.

• Game rules/Physics

  • Hunger system
  • Collect things (pick up, small blue cubes are apples, green cubes are mushrooms), Break stuff (trees are breakable), both inherited from Interactable, using raycast to detect them within a certain reach.
  • bullet physic engine two feature: Two Point Two Constraint, Ray Test
  • Joints (bridge)
  • Player character only moves to the direction of the camera.

• Audio

  • Audio queues
  • Looping sounds
  • One-time sounds

• Saved game

  • Saves survived time
  • Saves volume
  • Automatically saves while closing game.

• Scene management

  • HUD will be drawn with game scene.
  • Total of 7 scenes working, dead scene not working~ will break for some reason, didn't put it in.

• Tweening

  • Menu items

• Polish

  • FPS counter
  • Mouse control(turn camera around)
  • Inventory part 1 (logic)
  • Randomly generated world
  • Interactable things (nice hierarchy: GameObject->Interactable->Pickup/Breakable->Concrete Pickups/Breakables) using raytest

• Lighting

  • Multiple lighting, share functions between shaders, on and off functionality, below is a demonstration of spot light, directional light, and fog effect:

• Rendering to a texture

  • working, below is a demonstration of postprocessing:

• Cubemaps

  • 2 cube maps for 2 levels, below is a demonstration of one of the skyboxes:

• Polish

  • Add fog effect.
  • Rendering to a texture for each scene, so postprocessing won't affect scenes other than game scenes
  • Text rendering
  • Particles
  • debug draw set up, but not done
  • Inventory part 2 (displaying apple and mushroom upon picking up)

• ImGui - testing the poisonous condition, below is a demonstration of using imgui:
