Made for UTS Introduction to Games Design 2022. Themes: Espionage and Unreliable. Group name: SEGA.
[PREMISE]
"I am a spy, an agent... the most reliable espionage you could find in this dulling climate. I have my ways, techniques that many, if not all, would find to be... unorthodox.
I am regarded in multiple pleasantries. 'Charming', 'Elusive', 'Capable', 'Enigmatic'... this one goes by many titles. But knowing that you are my client, I believe you do deserve my real name. The name's Ball, James Ball."
Take control of James Ball, a hired spy, to infiltrate multiple premises and steal confidential documents from secure sites. Challenges will await you, with adversities to overcome. But there is one striking issue... you are a total golf-ball.
[GAMEPLAY]
Evade goons and their guard-dogs by bouncing around walls and sliding across the ground using the unreliable mouse controls. Navigate through the levels with tricky (and deliberate) designs to obtain the secret document hidden inside each premises and hightail it to the escape vehicle.
Turn the odds in your favor by learning patterns and utilizing the environment. You won't be a real spy unless you get smart.
[CONTROLS]
Mouse: Click and drag anywhere on the screen to launch the spy in a direction. Click on the power-up icon to use them.
[TIPS]
- You only get detected it a guard sees you for more than 0.5 seconds.
- Click while moving to stop movement.
- Being patient is a viable option.
- Try to take advantage of bouncing on walls and slopes.
