EuroFoodExpo
DESCRIPTION
This group project is a cooking game where the player can go between food stands representing an European country and cook one of their traditional dishes. The aim of the game was to promote a food exhibition and its ingredients.
Throughout the development, the team used the Agile methodology with SCRUM.
As the lead programmer, the mechanics I worked on are:
-
Drag and drop + bowl/basket addition;
-
Ingredients order for each level;
-
Item interactions (knife, bowls, pans, etc);
-
Item animations (eggs, cutting board, etc);
-
Game UI (entry panels);
-
Saving system when switching scenes;
-
Crossing ingredients and swapping lists of steps.
Since the marketing aspect was an important part of this project, I embedded the game on a website I created using the Laravel framework, so it can be played online (see trailer).
You can see code snippets and flowcharts here.

Although the mechanics seem rather simple, adjusting the colliders for all ingredients and creating specific orders for all levels consumed a lot of time.
A mechanic that I found slightly challenging at first was that the player could do the levels in whatever order they wanted, so the game should count this to avoid repeating a level.
