Furlastic Duo (Capstone) - Co-op Puzzle Platformer

Thu, 15 Aug 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Overview

Furlastic Duo is a cooperative 3D puzzle platformer where a cat and a dog solve puzzles using unique abilities while linked by a spectral entity. The game supports local and online multiplayer, with a single-player mode that lets you toggle between characters.

What I built (Lead Programmer)

Built the tether mechanic from scratch in Unity (C#), using custom physics logic to compute real-time tension and forces between characters.
Designed the system to be designer-friendly by exposing tunable parameters so level designers could iterate without touching code.
Implemented a JSON-based save system for persistent game state.
Helped ship the project through multiple milestone builds (prototype → demo → alpha → final).

Key features

Dual character gameplay with a “swap vision” mechanic for puzzle-solving.
Levels spanning multiple themes (e.g., cyberpunk cities and solarpunk farms) with unique interactions.
“George the Ghost” mechanic where the linking entity affects the environment and puzzles.
Local + online multiplayer support.

Tools & tech

Unity, C#, custom physics, vector math, OOD, JSON, Git

Highlights

Capstone project developed in a studio-style team environment.
Publicly showcased and playtested at a live event.
