Defrost by LDJam user 373725

[raw]
made by LDJam user 373725 for Ludum Dare 54 (JAM)

Description

Roblox game made from scratch by Space Trace Studio members.

Genre: multiplayer horror.

By lore, game takes place at the space ship, where crew members abruptly wakened up from cryosleep by an emergency. Now they have to evacuate while alien creature is hunting them.

Player roles: * Several player (1 or 2) are alien creatures, which should hunt humans and paralyze all of them. * Other players are crew members, they should collect some staff to open escape room, and then escape.

How to play

For play, you should have an roblox account, go to link https://www.roblox.com/games/14923164210/Defrost and press "Play".

Game is possible to play only for 3+ players, so if you want to check it, please either wait for other players or find someone to play.

Development

Assets we have made by ourselves: * Alien creature model and animations * Buildings' (spaceship and hub) bodies * Images in non-core UIs

Everything else (spaceship interior, audio) were taken from Roblox toolbox.

Team roles: * @bogotolec: captain, programmer * @Ameize4: programmer * @Valeriapopova: alien modelling and animating, designer * @aleksandra: spaceship modelling, designer * @Tonya: UI design, game icon, texts * Special thanks to @Rusya-Ink, for help at last moment

Afterword

We had great experience developing it and we are looking forward to continue with the progress. Originally, we were thinking about "Weapon race" mechanic, where alien evolves over time and crew members collect materials and craft something. We hope we will implement this feature after the jam.

Here is the footage of the gameplay if you want to check it out, but have no opportunity to play: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z35vTivnODc

This is our first participation in game jams, and we think our creature is very good.

We will appreciate all feedback.

Interesting that it's a Roblox game. Also love that it is (obviously) a multiplayer game. I like assymetric games as well. Nice job!

I couldn't play the game because of the account issue but making MOD with Roblox is not bad, depending on the concept of the game.
And the concept of this game looks very neat!

pretty fun with friends. I feel like it would be pretty imbalanced if you had more than like 4 players

Fun with friends, but it's hard to tell where objectives are without a map or any UI to tell you where they are.

We have seen that there are a lot of people who want to check the game, but have no opportunity (no Roblox account, no available friends, etc) So our friends helped us to create a footage of gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z35vTivnODc

Ay man, love seeing roblox games on here! And this one is especially interesting, the animations are fun but some parts get a bit confusing, like idk where the objectives are, but it's still a lot of fun.

So I went extra mile, created account on Roblox, install it and... I wish I could play it, but for 15 minutes of waiting the best I got was me and one more person, that left after a minute of waiting :( I guess it is hard to get 3 people on random chance. So all I can do is to say that the game looks interesting and wish you good luck on final ranting!

Thanks for showing me the game! I see what you were going for, and why you need at least 3 people to play. Nicely done, the atmosphere in-game is really good. Well done!
