Guild of Mercenaries - A Video Game

Guild of Mercenaries was a two-week project that I worked on with a friend of mine during the Interim period in January.

My friend worked on level and model design as well as the storyline.

I was responsible for the programming, animating, and gameplay design.

We were quite satisfied with our results. The game itself is really simple, but still provides about 4-5 hours of fun.

The game features two computer-controlled teammates who will assist you all the way to the end. As of current version, they do not die, so you can use them as human shields if you need to. The game features four levels of armor, three weapons, and a shield that can be purchased at the shop. There are four towns, with three quests in each, as well as an overworld area that serves as a pathway from one town to another.

Your goal is to defeat the final boss. You will be able to take on the quest that requires you to defeat him as soon as you've finished all other quests. There are two types of enemies: Melee and Ranged. Some quest-specific enemies exist as well, and they tend to be more challenging than the regular enemies. Boss enemies appear for final quests in each town.

On a side note, all sounds were obtained from Oblivion and Mount and Blade.

SPOILER:

The final boss music is from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.
