FamilyStyle: My First Explorations in Game Development
I had just found out that, for my last semester at Cornell, I was going to be taking the “Advanced Game Architecture” course. From beginning to end, I was constantly learning new frameworks and ways to develop games for iOS. This post is going over some of the key considerations we made for our game, as well as what the end result looks like.
OVERVIEW
Too many cooks in the kitchen? Sounds like a game of Family Style! Shout and scramble for space to cook dishes in this hectic, mobile party game for 3 to 8 friends. Family Style is a cross-platform party game that transforms your living room into a virtual kitchen!
