Friends in a Galaxy - A local co-op game experience



Concept

You and your ship are suddenly warped through a wormhole and you find yourself in a galaxy infested with evil robots. Together with your crew you soar through the galaxy and defeat the evil robots. You find out that the only way back to your own galaxy is though a portal the evil robots made, but you can get trough the barier they made until you defeat all the elite robots. On the way you upgade your ship and when you defeat all the elite robots you can enter the portal and return back to your own galaxy.


Limitations

Friends in a galaxy is a school project that has the limitation of using only your mobile phone as input. Because of this limitation we use phones as a controllers. You also need two players to play Friends in a galaxy. One player controlls the ship and the other the turret.


note: we also made a keyboard build so you dont need to use OSC.


OSC

Max Coppen made a custom implementation of OSC the Communication Protocol using a UDP server. He also made a user manager that adds new clients to a list so they can easily be accessed at runtime. The main menu also uses the OSC input of the clients to show a cursor so they can interact with the UI.
