FIT2096 - Games Programming 1

ASSIGNMENT 3a [10%] - Individual Assessment

Game Prototype

SUBMISSION DUE: Friday Week 07, 11:55 PM

Covers Topics from Weeks 1 - 5

Late Penalty: 10% of total marks per day late

Learning Outcomes

Completion of this assignment demonstrates the following learning outcomes:

● Create game programs that demonstrate an understanding of the programming game loop

and how to set it up

● Create game programs that demonstrate an understanding of DirectX, including textures,

displaying sprites, animation, text, and rendering

● Create game programs that demonstrate an understanding of physics in the games

programming context, including basic movement and interaction

● Create game programs that demonstrate an understanding of Direct 3D rendering, including

geometry, models, cameras, textures and lighting

Brief

Across the semester you will be building a game prototype for a game based on a prompt selected

from the provided list below. This assessment is broken down into 3 submissions, with each

focussing on specific aspects of the prototype.

This assignment will be completed together with your Assignment 2. More information can be found

in the brief for A2a

The prompts that you can select from are as follows:

● You are trying to steal an enemy crown. Navigate the environment whilst escaping multiple

enemies.

● You are trapped in a dungeon full of deadly puzzles. You must solve a sequence of puzzles

in your cell to escape

● You have been provided a new prototype gadget for fast traversal. You must complete a

series of platforming challenges

● You have encountered the big bad boss. You need to use multiple weapons to defeat them

● You are a ghost that can control other creatures. Possess creatures with different abilities to

escape

Submission Requirements

Upload the link to your Git repository via Moodle. You will be assessed based on your most recent

commit prior to the due date.

Make sure the following people have maintainer access:

● josh.olsen@monash.edu

● nic.pallant@monash.edu

● jason.haasz@monash.edu

● sandro.prakoso@monash.edu

Use of Generative AI in Assessment

In this assessment, you can use generative artificial intelligence (AI) in order to create

backgrounds for your main menu and any billboards within the game, Any use of generative AI must

be appropriately acknowledged (see Learn HQ).

Where used a readme text file MUST be included that contains the following information about

each generative AI asset

● Name of asset

● The prompt used to generate the asset

● Use in game (background, etc.)

● The tool used to create the assets (Dall-e, Stable Diffusion, MidJourney, etc.)

● The model used if known (e.g. SDv1.5 https://huggingface.co/runwayml/stable-diffusion-v1-5)

Task: Core Gameplay

For this first submission you are creating the base of the game, with your core mechanic

implemented and functional. The early weeks labs will help you build the skills needed to achieve

this goal, with additional outside study required for full completion of the tasks.

All tasks must be completed in C++ unless explicitly stated otherwise.

The submission of this prototype must include the following components:

● Version Control via Git & GitLab

● Core Mechanic

Version Control via Git & GitLab:

Suggested Completion Date: End of Week 4

When building your prototype you must store your work within a Git Repository using the Monash

FIT GitLab server (https://git.infotech.monash.edu).

This repository should use GitLFS for all files within the Content folder (game assets).

GitIgnore File

The repository must use a .gitignore file to exclude the following folders from the repository:

● .vs

● .idea

● Binaries

● Build

● DerivedDataCache

● Intermediate

● Saved

Instructions for setting up this repository can be found in the Week 1 lab tasks on Moodle.

Additional material is also available in the software installation guide in the supplementary under

Week 0 on Moodle. Commits to the repository being made weekly.

Core Mechanic

Suggested Completion Date: Week 6

Your prototype must include a major core mechanic that helps define the gameplay in the project.

Choice of mechanic will be based on the prompt chosen and your own decisions. You should

discuss this with your demonstrator to ensure the mechanic is not too difficult or easy to achieve.

What is a core mechanic?

A core mechanic is a mechanic that has a major impact on the gameplay and is recurring

throughout the game. Examples of core mechanics include:

● Being able to build structures in Fortnite to hide or trap non-player characters (NPC)

● The ability to attack or disrupt an NPC

● Using a magic spell to remove an obstacle

● Reversing time to give yourself a second chance

You have freedom to choose what mechanics you would like to create for your prototype, however

they must be approved by your demonstrator. This process is to ensure you do not choose to create

a mechanic that is too trivial or too difficult.

User Interface

Suggested Completion Date: Mid-Semester Break

Your prototype must include two different user interfaces (UI); a main menu and an in-game UI.

Each of these UIs must be created with a combination of C++ classes and UI blueprints as

demonstrated in the Week 5 Lab.

Main Menu

The main menu UI must be created inside of its own level with its own GameMode class written in

C++. At minimum the UI must contain the following:

● A background colour / image that matches the theme of your game

● A title for your game

● A “Play Game” button that takes the player to the Game Level

● A “Quit” button that closes the game

In-Game UI

The in-game UI must be created within the main game level. This UI should provide relevant

information to the player based upon your game mechanics and design. This should also be

completed in C++ making use of bindings. Examples for this include:

● Health

● Action Points / Mana / Stamina

● Visibility

● Currently held items

● Current weapon

Code Quality

Suggested Completion Date: Continual Updates Weekly

Your prototype must be created with code quality as a major consideration. As part of this, you must

ensure that proper indentation is used along with consistent naming conventions for classes,

functions and variables. The use of the Tick function within Actors should be carefully managed to

ensure that only critical elements are updated each frame.

Proper Indentation

All code should be properly formatted to ensure correct indentation is used. You must use a tab or

4 spaces for each step of indentation.

Consistent Naming Conventions

All code within the project should use the following conventions:

● Variable names must use PascalCase

● Function names must use PascalCase

● Boolean values must include a b prefix (e.g. bIsObjectFalling)

● All functions that return a boolean must ask a true/false question (e.g. IsObjectAboutToFall)

● Code should be self-documenting. All functions and variables must indicate their function by

name

More information on coding conventions can be found in the Unreal Documentation

Appropriate Use of Tick

The Tick function inside of Actors should have its use minimised to ensure that unnecessary

calculations are not done every single frame. Your code should consider the following:

● The Tick function should be disabled in Actors where updates are not needed every frame

● Where possible timers should be used for actions that are required at set intervals that are

not each frame

Appropriate use of Folders in Content Browser

Assets contained within the Content Browser must be neatly maintained and stored using a folder

structure to keep assets organised. At minimum the folder structure should include the following:

● Blueprints

● Textures

● Materials

● Meshes

● Levels

● Characters

○ Player

○ NPC

● Effects

● Sound

● UI

● Input

● Sequences
