First post!
A few months ago, I crashed my Segway scooter into a storm ditch. I had fractured my hip in multiple places and spent the next several weeks recovering. Today, two months later, I am able to move around pretty well and day-to-day life is starting to get back to normal.
In the early days of my revocery, when I could not spend a ton of time vertical, I started working on a game. I wanted to make something that would memorialize my experience and give me an opportunity to laugh at what had happened. Scooter Scramble is a game about riding a scooter. Your character is pretty fragile - as I was. The game asks you to avoid obstacles and pedestrians as you ride around. I tried to capture how nerve racking and dangerous rudung on one of these can sometimes feel.
The game is currently in development. I occasionally go back to it on the weekends and have plans to add additional levels and features as I can.
What currently works
- View high scores that are read from save memory
- start a new game and play the first level
- collide with something and break your hip
Known issues
- Pausing the level causes pedestrians to reset to their starting location rather than saving their position
- Sometimes, the collision animation does not play properly
Plans for future versions...
- Update current high scores when you get enough points
- Add new pedestrains, animals, and obstacles
- cyclists
- birds
- rocks and sand
- golf carts
- Add additional levels
- (possibly randomly selected or procedurally generated?)
