# WSEI 6 ## Description _WSEICraft_ is a series of hackaton / game jam events organized by **WSEI Academy** of Cracow. It's sixth edition (_WSEICraft 6.0_) took place between 20 and 21 May 2022 (2 days). The main goal was to use make 2 games with ***Construct 3*** engine within 24 hours (10 hours for each game + breaks) about 2 different themes: **seasons** for the first game and **adventure** for the second game. I was in technical middle-high school, when our website development class teacher adviced me to take part in it, so I assembled the team of 4 members, including me and my school friends, and called it ***Eagles***. Out of 30 teams from different schools, we managed to get the 9th place, which is not bad for such inexperienced team like us, who participated for the first time in such event. However, our first hackaton was also our last. Before the next event edition, we graduated from school and went our separate ways. ## Games 1. [**Season Shifter**](#item-content)- platformer with season changing mechanics 2. [**Blaster Core**](#item-content)- space shooter with upgrade and bossfight mechanics ## Participants - **Adrian P.** - scripts, UI, 2D graphics, sound design - **Daniel K.** - 2D graphics, character design - **Mateusz P.** - scripts, game design, level design - **Kuba F.** - scripts, level design, UI - **Jacek S.** - teacher, supervisor ## Trivia Due to our poor management at the beginning (3 guys doing scripts and 1 guy doing art), we wasted much time on waiting for assets, making our first game a disaster. However, our second game was far better than expected. In the first game you can cheat by constantly changing seasons, what grants you an additional double jump, and also respawns keys needed to open the door. However, if their amount exceeds 2, you won't be able to move forward. The 'Season Shifter' name idea came the fact that our friend had a nickname 'Shifter'. Linux starbase from the second game is a reference to our operation systems class teacher, who's a Linux lover. Pizza served during the event was so spicy I couldn't focus for a while. The last hour of event was the worst. We were horribly tired, but too excited before announcing the winners to take a nap. ## Additional links - [Event announcement](https://wsei.edu.pl/wracamy-do-gry-wseicraft-6-0-hackathon-projektowania-gier-komputerowych/) - [Event results](https://wsei.edu.pl/podsumowanie-6-hackathonu-projektowania-gier-komputerowych-wseicraft/) - [Article about our team](https://www.ckziuandrychow.pl/wysokie-miejsce-orlow-w-24-godzinnym-maratonie-programowania-gier-komputerowych/)
