Box World

by Yue Wu, Zhuoqun Xu

Description

Stemming from the game Super Mario and the concept of Hakoniwa (box garden in Japanese) , Box World features a miniature world consisting of islands which the protagonist can jump across.

World 4 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)

Technical features

Easy: Toon shading, Particle effect
Medium: Procedurally generated terrain, Water effect with reflection and refraction

Our Creative Efforts:

Worlds: two worlds are existent, distinguished by shading (real vs toon). the player can jump from one to another.
Swimming: when the gap between islands is too wide to jump across, the player can swim across, but not for long.
Bombarding: a plane would cruise above throwing bombs to destroy existing islands.
