SvinCraft

A first person game prototype with mechanics inspired by StarCraft

Player can mine resources with hand-drill, spawn new npcs and give them move and resource mining commands. There is also reaction to collision with environment for drill, visual indication of the amount of mined resources, a little touch on drill animation when left mouse button is released and indication that mining capacity is full.

The purpose of the project was to see how fast a prototype can be made using only freely available assets,
unmodified Bevy Engine and a number of plugins for it to achieve some sort of gameplay
as fast as possible. (Before any polishing this version was made in about 3 weeks of working in the evenings)
