Popoff!

PopOff! is a fast-paced 2D top-down multiplayer arcade bumper cart game. Utilizing just one keyboard all 4 players can play using just one button! The game is action-packed with items and obstacles preventing you from getting all the popcorn, not to mention the enemies you make of your friends!  Collect all the popcorn and  in other words, Pop off!  Made with Unity and available on Windows and through WebGL!

This game was made within 48 hours in the UCF FIEA game jam with the theme: 

Amusement Park 

KIDDY AREA

Before entering the arena we encourage all of our guests to explore the kiddy area! This area will allow for guests to practice using the Bumper Carts without all the obstacles and items in our regular arena! You'll get to experience the Gator Coaster fly by but don't get hit by it! All this to prepare you to enter the Bumper carts! 

BUMPER CARTS

BUMPER CARTS

Lets go Bumper Carting! The controls are simple: Pick a character and learn their button! While not pressing a button your cart will begin to spin! Press the button once to move forward! Hold your buttons and release to use your item!

You can press the button as fast as you like but be careful. Pressing it too much will cause you to spin out of control! When you see  the symbol above spam your button as fast as you can to regain control of your cart !

POPCORN 

The aim of the game is to get as much popcorn as possible! As you play popcorn will pop at the center of the screen! Collect as much as you can as fast as you can! Spinning out of control or bumping into another guest will cause you to lose popcorn.  You can take a look at how much popcorn a person has in their cart by looking at their bag of popcorn. The bag will get bigger the more popcorn a person has in their cart. A crown will appear above the person with the most popcorn until the last 10 seconds.  Be the one with the most at the end to win! 

ITEMS

      - Mallet: Take out your anger on another carter and hit them with this inflatable mallet to cause them to spin out of control and lose popcorn!

      - Rails: Summon the Gator Coaster to make an appearance! Try not to get yourself hit by it!

      - Ice Cream:  Drop your ice cream to create a spill! Careful not to slip and spin out of control!

      - Baseball: Throw this ball as hard as you can! It will bounce until it hits someone! Signed by the creators.

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS

	- Roller coaster: The Gator Coaster will speed down the rails spinning you out of control if you're in it's way!  - Pinball Bumpers: These bumpers will bounce you away from it.
	- Flippers: There are two sets of flippers on the left side and the right side. They flip on set intervals. Use them to get across the map quicky!

CONCESSION STAND

- You can view the winner at the concession stand once the timer is up! Watch as the popcorn you collected pops in the themed machines! The person with the most in their character machine wins!

AUDIO

• [ Currently does not have an option  - We are working to make this available!] 

MECHANICS

• Popoff is a one-button game built with the idea of accessibility in mind! The game is available to play with 4 people all on one keyboard. With the one-button design each player will only be responsible for one key 
  

VIDEO

• [ Currently does not have an option - We are working to make this available!]

• There are, to our knowledge, currently no actions the player can take that crash the game.
• Sometimes the railroad item will show as in inventory after being used. Items are still able to be picked up and used but the railroad sprite will remain in the background. We are working to fix this. 
• We realize the current controls with Left Ctrl and Left Alt may cause the game to window, we are working to change these controls.

[ The current build is from the Game Jam; A more updated build for quality of life and bugs is being worked on and will be in here soon! As well as a WEBGL build!]
