Shiva: A summer project by TJR


Project Shiva is the first thing from TJR that can be regarded as a real game. It's basically a top-down space shmup survival with no real story so far. The game started as an ambitious summer project, but had to be cut down a little as the deadline for our school's competition we had entered started to close down on us. We worked hard for the last two weeks and it paid off, earning us the first place and a chance to attend Assemly Summer 2009.

The game got a nice response from the public, we were even asked if it's available on Live Arcade. :D

Shiva is a project where every member of our team of three has worked on pretty much every area; right from design to the code and graphics. Personally I can take responsibility for the in-game background generation, some graphics, some of the design and documentation, plus too many bits and pieces to list individually. Brainstorming was found to be very efficient when designing, and much of the game was programmed in a group.

We still have plenty of ideas to develop Shiva further, just need to find more time... One of those things is to make a small site or blog just for Shiva, to explain the game and the process behind it further.

For now, you can watch our awesome showreel on youtube. :P
