Super Mega Squid

Cross-platform 2D Action Arcade Game

Super Mega Squid Gameplay

This game was inspired by Super Mega Worm. You play as a rage-filled squid monster. You need to consume everything in sight to keep the rage flowing while avoiding death from the increasingly hostile humans.

Nape physics engine powers the creatures tentacles. A custom collision detection system is used for the terrain.

Building on my experience developing Pather, I continued to use Haxe and Nape to develop this game. It was designed primarily for Android. However, Haxe allowed for deployment on many platforms.

A custom blitting engine renders the water surface, terrain and and particle effects.

This project was a fun learning experience. I advanced my knowledge of Haxe, blitting techniques, physics systems and trigonometry
