Imposters-Among-Us

CS 6457 Video Game Design - Fall 2023 - Team: Imposters Among Us - Game: Gladiator's Redemption

Start Scene: MainMenu

Instructions: Start in the cell and talk to your cellmates, they will point you to leave the cell. As you leave the cell and walk towards the training room upstairs, Draxus the guard will confront you and eventually tell you where to go. The cells are meant to be an area where the story progresses and dialogue happens. You will then go upstairs to the right, and interact with the big double doors to enter the training room. When starting in the training room, the player will auto enter dialogue with Caelia the trainer, if you interact with her after this dialogue she will point you to leave the training room when ready. The training room allows the player to choose between the 3 clans changing the weapon they will have in the fight, and you can test the weapon on the training dummy that appears after choosing a clan. When done, you go interact with the double doors at the top of the stairs and move onto the Colosseum scene. You will start dialogue with your opponent and go through a couple of options of hearing people talk, interacting with the crowd, etc. The player will then be given a game over screen when defeating the enemy (or able to respawn if they lost to the opponent which will restart the Colosseum scene).

Button Mappings: W: Forward A: Left Double tap A: roll left S: Backwards (known issue about moving forward slightly after moving back) Double tap S: roll backwards D: Right Double tap D: roll right Space: Jump Left Click: Attack P: Pause/Resume

Known Problem Areas:

1. Draxus is supposed to go back to his traversal after interacting with the player, but right now instead stays where the interactions starts and turns towards the player.
