This student-made game was created in Fall 2023 by students in Cohort 33, as part of SMU Guildhall's Team Game Production I curriculum.
“Why am I here?” This is the question that started one robot’s quest to escape his purposeless existence. Players take control of this robot, named N8, as they guide him through the Lab that has served as his home and prison for so long. Unfortunately, nothing is ever that easy, and the Lab is keen to keep N8 forever. The Lab has many puzzling defenses, as well as an army of loyal robotic minions. But N8 is not defenseless! Use N8’s laser blaster to blow through his enemies and use his incredible strength to use the environment to his advantage! This is N8’s Great Escape!
N8’s Great Escape is a single player, top down, twin stick shooter developed using Unity for the Android operating system. Developed by 05 Shades of Grey, N8’s Great Escape was created with the goal of building an experience that was enjoyable on mobile platforms, while also containing frenetic action. The team spent nearly three months ensuring they met these goals. As this was the team’s first game done in a professional setting, they learned the fundamentals of Agile Game Development with SCRUM, interdisciplinary collaboration, and game design.
