Technical Architecture

Key Features: Engineering the Mechanics

1. Your Weapon: The player's weapon was designed to be a cartoonishly oversized blunderbuss. This large rifle is programmed to rotate such that the barrel is always pointing to your mouse cursors position in the world, allowing the player to feel in control.

2. High Score: The high score is a tracked player pref, allowing you to locally store your high score. Compete against yourself for the top spot!

3. Time-Limited Mode: The player has 60 seconds to rack up as high of a score as possible! This keeps the pressure on without feeling drawn out.

4. Easy to Play: The game is designed to be accessible to all audiences. The exaggerated nature of the rifle helps players understand that the mouse movement is what aims the rifle. The moles are designed in 2 different ways. The one with the bomb is designed to let player's know that they should not attack this mole, even without prior experience.
