Subject

❗ Warning: This project is an Epitech project. Follow the golden rule ... do not make a project recovered on github or you can get -42! 👅

This project is one of the freest project of your first year. Create your own RPG. Your main challenge for this game will be to create a complete product using everything that you and your team know.

Your game must follow the following rules:

  • The player needs to have characteristics which you can find in the status menu.
  • The player can fight enemies, statistics will impact the fights results.
  • There must be NPC in your game.
  • You need to implement at least one quest.
  • The player must have an inventory which can contain a limited set of items.
  • The player can earn experience by winning fights and accomplishing specific actions.
  • With enough experience, the player can level up, upgrading its statistics.

To give the users the feeling that you’re delivering a complete product you need to polish as much as possible your game.

  • Having a pleasant user interface.
  • Create a coherent universe (visual assets, audio assets, scenario, . . .)
  • Create a funny game where the player has at least one goal.
  • Create a game with a beginning and an end.

💡 You should think and look for information about how to create a simple yet entertaining RPG.
