Mechanics
Alien escape is a stealth game, although with all the mechanics that were supposed to go into the game not working it is simply spider attempting to find it’s way out of a complex.
Run around a laboratory and attempt to escape out of the single exit while the hovering guards are shooting at you.
Main mechanics:
The guards are actively looking for the player using NavMesh and line of sight code.
The player is able to maneuver and attempt to stay out of the line of sight of the enemies
Mechanics that didn’t make it in:
The player was originally going to have abilities such as invisibility but this did not work in the end
the spider was going to also be able to climb the walls and use a ‘grappling hook’ method to attach to the walls
This was going to make the final cut but the method would not work with the designed environment.
