After reading the theme I thought of an fps game fighting against viruses but I also wanted more so I added a tower defense aspect.
You fight as a white blood cell with a shotgun against killer Viruses that target your brain, you can use in game currency to buy bone marrow who will produce more white blood cells to fight for you. If the Virus reaches your brain it weakens the brain. If a virus reaches your bone marrow, it will infect the bone marrow, using it as a host cell, and produce more viruses.
I used Unity and C# in visual studio to program this. I used Unity's pro builder feature to create the 3d models for all of the things show in game.
It was complicated figuring out how I wanted to deploy the bone marrow. Whether it should be deployed from a distance or thrown but I landed on just making it where the player stands for ease of code due to time restraint.
I'm proud of what I got done in the time spent making. I added noises, animations, raycasting, lighting, and even cool fonts with a detailed tutorial.
I learned how hard it is to create a game in a time constraint and how to pace myself.
I would like to add Bacteria, and Lymph nodes as more towers and more enemies with unique abilities to further enchance the game. Also background music which I did not ahve a chance to add.
