A downloadable game

Developed using the SFML Framework & C++, Shape Invaders is a quirky version of the classic game we all love... Space Invaders.


The Brief

Create a version of 'Space Invaders' that demonstrates an understanding of C++ and SFML.

The Idea

Being tasked to work with a framework that I was not familiar with required a lot of planning out as I didn't want to dive into the development phase without fully understanding the framework in use.

Everyone loves Space Invaders, and so being tasked with making our own version was very exciting. After brainstorming several ideas, I decided to go ahead with the game idea Shape Invaders; the game where the little androids were replaced with shapes.

As this project was entirely solo, I took into consideration the general gameplay, the art style, and any extra mechanics that were to be added. I took some time to plan out the infrastructure of the game as well as the types of enemies, both visually and back-end so that the game could begin development.
