Wallbreaker

Wallbreaker is a turn-based game for 2 players with aspects of both cooperation and competition.

The objective is to gather 3 items that are hidden inside blocks. In order to get an item, the players must roll a dice which will have a number (most of the time), then tap a block with the correct math operation that corresponds to that number. The placement of these items is randomized.

While getting these items the players will have to be careful not to tap blocks that destabilizes the structure to avoid making the character fall. When this character falls both players fail and the game ends.

The instance I worked on is called Walbreaker Subtraction and is part of the multiplayer collection called Play Together.

The educational aspect of this game is math operations mostly and 3 words related to the items.

Wallbreaker Subtraction

Wallbreaker Subtraction was the fifth game I worked on in Lingokids.

In this Storymaker game I worked on implementing assets, programming logic changes when it was need and updating documentation.

In fact, this game required templatization which is turning a 1-instance game into a template to ease the process of making future instances. This involved documenting the process of making a new instance for this specific game and carefully organizing the assets internally to allow just a simple asset replacement.

Here you can check the Implementation guide that I made as a result.

This game required some new VFXs such as particles and other animations which I was in charge of too.

Additionally, I worked closely with the education department to design and adjust the values and subtraction operations.

I also, conducted user tests with 3-7 year old kids to check any potential issues and ensure the proper performance and educational outcomes of the game.
