Lock & Love
A downloadable game for Windows
This project was built in under 42 hours for a school Game Jam with the theme “Guns that don’t shoot bullets!” I worked alongside a classmate of mine Zachary Lebel, focusing on key areas of development. I was responsible for gathering and organizing animations, setting up the main menu, implementing pathfinding, and contributing to several other core tasks. Zachary handled the gameplay loop logic, win/lose conditions, level building, UI management. It was a fast-paced collaboration that pushed both of us to work efficiently under pressure.
Your job as cupid is to save this terrible date from happening by making the target be a better person by shooting them with your love rifle. However you lost all your info of your target from the night before out drinking with the easter bunny. With your date tracker you get live feedback (hints) from the targets date, that tells you roughly what they're doing wrong! Save the date before time runs out!~ Be careful though you only get 1 SHOT!
Game Mechanics/Tutorial :
Lock & Love is very similar to a game many of you know as Spy Party, although this is a simpler dumbed down single player version, all of the potential targets have a bunch of tasks( Tasks are Getting up from the table to talk to another table, "saying" certain emotions or plain animations), they will randomly select Tasks from the pool and perform them. The target is different, they only perform 3 sets of task pools repeatedly, the hints that come in from your date tracker let you know what the other person is doing and vaguely which pool of actions they are doing, each hint correlates to a different one of the actions. You can mark people as suspicious by selecting them and highlighting with 2 different colors (Yellow and Green) as well as remove the highlight to help Keep track of what's happening, zoom with right click, move with A/D and click the date tracker in the top right to find out what is happening in the date!
Happy relationship fixing... or Failing! DISCLAIMER I own basically no assets in this entire project, this project will NOT be worked on and is honestly a buggy mess! It was for a game jam project for fun and will not be changed. further. Also There is currently a bug that shrinks some of the dates, again will NOT be fixed, there are lots of bugs, I'm pretty sure the sound settings don't even work!
Music - There is a taylor swift song in there somewhere as well as careless whisper but most of the music was made from Stream Cafe on youtube
Models -
The heavy majority of the models were made by Quaternius.
