A downloadable Chronocide for Windows and macOS

Instructions:

  1. Enter your name and pick a color
  2. Press "Set Name"
  3. Press "Join Lobby" 
  4. Once you've joined the lobby, you can press escape to disable the menu and play. The battle royale gameplay will not start until the host (first player to join) presses start.

Chronocide is an online multiplayer game where every player has a countdown timer above their head. When your time runs out, you die! Delay your inevitable death by killing enemies or killing other players to gain all of their remaining time. You can also get weapons by destroying fallen loot boxes found all over the map. Be the last player standing to win!

5. When the game is over, the host needs to leave in order to restart. If you cannot rejoin the game after the host leaves, you (and the host) may need to restart your application.

Developer Note:

ALL 3D models were made by us with Blender—we did not get any of them from the internet. See the list at the bottom for the very minimal list of outside resources we used.

Please understand how hard it is to make a 3D (semi) MMO. Every detail of development gets exponentially harder with multiplayer involved. As a result of this challenge, our team fell short on some other aspects, such as these:

  • Proper matchmaking
  • Networking bugs that mainly arose after building the game.
  • A feature where your player becomes more and more gray as your time runs out.
  • A feature where your camera loses saturation as your time runs out.
  • A feature where your character model becomes less human and creepier as your time runs out, along with a speed boost when super low on time.
  • Player animation bugs and an unfinished animator.
  • Our best soundtrack is missing from the game due to a bug along with a clock ticking sound.
  • Smoother controls
  • Much more

Outside Resources Used:

  • Two texture packs, a water shader, and a skybox from the Unity Asset Store
  • Sound effects (but not music) from the internet
  • Mixamo for only the player animations (all other animations made in blender)

The fixed version has nothing different about the gameplay, just a small networking bug that I patched.
