Introduction
Weather Gods was a small team project that was completed and
shipped in early 2018 for a game development class at DePaul
University. Responsible for in game art assets and over all game
design through the project.
▼
The idea for this game was to have an original take on a tower
defense game. The player would control The Kraken and try to keep
the villagers from escaping the island. The player also had various
weather controls to also keep the villagers in place. Villagers
would build bridges to escape the center island and ride boats off
of the island. Once 100 villagers escaped the island the game was
over.

Game Mechanics
The basic mechanic of the game was a teleport that the Kraken could utilize to
move across the map more affectively. The teleport can be used when the bar on the left
side of the screen is full. The bar can be recharged by getting sacrifices.
▼
The player is able to upgrade their skills in between play throughs
of each game. The player can take these upgrades into their next play through
of the game.
▼
This skill is a thunderstorm that the player can spawn in where their mouse is placed.
The thunderstorm skill slows and damages enemy ships that pass through it. The player can
spawn thunderstorms at will as long as they have enough souls.
▼
This is a whirlpool skill that the player can spawn at will. The
whirlpool skill will send ships that pass through it back to their
spawn. The player can spawn whirlpools at will as long as they have enough souls.
▼
The final skill is a volcano that the player can choose where to place.
The volcano randomly shoots out rocks in random directions and deals massive
damage to any enemy that it hits. The player can spawn volcano at will as
long as they have enough souls.
