Misplaced in space Computer Graphics 2010 2011 project Mircea Mare 2129248 04/02/2011
Inspiration Remakes of classic games are popular Pac Man, Frogger ... SkyRoads 息 BlueMoon, 1993
Storyline A distant galaxy where black holes are square F16 can't fly since there's no atmosphere Thus... it can only glide and make small jumps using it's thrusters to avoid the obstacles (gaps and boxes)
Features Interaction: speed, movement, jumping, interactive viewpoint during PAUSE Collision detection
Features (2) Animations, track of obstacles F16 dismembers after colliding with a box F16 jumps over a box game "look-and-feel"
Program design Scene graph data structure Camera is the root Spaceship, Runway, Track are all children of the Camera root node (and siblings among themselves) Track class defines layout of obstacles (implemented as a totally ordered array with the Comparable interface) Camera Spaceship Runway Track
Program design (2) State-transition programming model
Program design (3) Collision detection Bounding/sliding window rendering (+efficiency) obstacles are rendered relative to a minimum and maximum bound (based on the F16's position)
Thanks!
