MANQUITA BUILDER | TOWER BUILDER ANDROID

  
Build the coolest cathedral in the world using your finger! Wath the expectators and the city turn into life with each move you make.
 
    
This game was made for Android, developed with Unity 2D. The sprites were made with Photoshop and Procreate

The initial idea comes from the Game Jam theme: “Famous location”. After a team meeting and brainstorming, we were clear about two things: We want to develop a game for moilve devices and also after few puzzles ideas the tower builder was the most suitable.


MECHANICS
​​​​​​​● Drop Block.​​​​​​​
DYNAMICS
● Perfect block drop
● Win streak making perfect blocks
​​​​​​​● Collapsing the construction
PLEASURES
● Breaking the overall scoring record
● Complete the challenge of build de cathedral correctly
● Sensory pleasure: The music and sfx are so satisfiying

Elements to be taken into account for a successful game
In order for the game to achieve its intended pleasures, we had to take two fundamental elements into account in its development:

To make players not to quit after playing once manquita builder. It is a casual and highly competitive oriented game, due to not having a different gameplay in each game and time constraints, the only thing we can use to retain players was to compete with each other for the record and create a satisfying visual experience, so we use a plugin to store the score in the cloud and allow players to compete for the first place.

Create the basis for possible future enhancements to the game such as new levels, challenges and new mechanics.

Level design
The jam was oriented to a famous monument of Malaga and the manquita is one of the most popular for the people of the city. This allowed us to attract a larger number of players attracted by the name of the cathedral.

Player Objetives
The player’s goal is to correctly build each of the pieces of the cathedral in order to score the most points. But this goal is really difficult to achieve because of the gameplay we have designed, each square falls in a physical way, and is able to knock down other cathedral blocks on its way.

Audience
This game is specially designed for achivers and casual gamers.
