Project Lava

About the Game

Project Lava (working title) is my second group project outside of university. We are creating an First Person Shooter - the Floor is Lava type game where players battle each other in a massive arena and attempt to knock other players into the lava, or shoot them down. The idea of the game is to be simplistic and over the top so we chose the best style that would suit the games mechanics, 80's neon. The story? Well houndreds of humanoid aliens invade earth all at the same time. They must battle to the death to decide who will rule earth.
