HYPERDRIVE
EVOLUTION
GAME OVERVIEW
​
Race to get 1st Place and upgrade your ship along the way!
In a city overrun by a single corporation, your business as a ship mechanic comes under threat. You challenge the CEO to a series of races to free yourself from their relentless pursuit for a full monopoly over the whole city. Defeat the corporate lackies to race one on one against the CEO himself in the final race.
PROJECT DETAILS
​
Hyperdrive Evolution is my first solo 3D project and is also my final submission for my University course. We were tasked with creating a project which had at least 10 minutes of meaningful gameplay, and also displayed our chosen pathways skills, mine being Level Design.
GAME CONCEPT
​​
This game was heavily inspired by two games: F-Zero and Wipeout. I was always fond of these styles of racing game and wondered what it would be like to combine these established titles into a creation of my own. During the first few weeks of prototyping I created a crude concept of a track and started testing ways of making the player stick to the track when defying gravity. During this phase I was also testing ways I could add a twist to the gameplay which is when I decided on adding a roguelike feature.
