Overview

One pond, Two ducks. Who will be the duck last remaining in the pond?

Two Player Versus arcade game where you both control a duck, trying to block the other ducks path

What Learned

Underlaying all the visuals of Duckoff there is a 2d grid system. This gridsystem takes care of everything that could be on the board using numbers, 1 to 3 and -1 to -3 are used for both sides as front, middle and end ducks. 0 for nothing, and 4 and up for different powerups. The first playtests were done using only numbers.

Animations were also implemented to make it all look more smoothly, done using animation sprites.
