Exploration 06: Final Exploration - "XOR"

Title: XOR

Creator: Aidan Schiavone

Platform: PC

Genre: Puzzle 

Rating/Target Market: Everyone 

Game Overview: 

This is a prototype game built using Unity 2D centered around writing sentences in English that teach a player-constructed robot how to complete various tasks. This prototype includes 25 unique robot parts to mix and match, 7 different quest "contracts" to tackle, and 6 original music tracks.

This project uses quite a bit of artificial intelligence (the sentence parser consisting of 700+ lines of code!) to understand player input, storing the parsed meanings within a simulated web of nodes and running calculations against it to determine proper behaviors. And of course, it also includes a fair number of silly animations to add to the enjoyment of the player as they see their robot fulfill its instructions. 

Useful Commands:

• - move to "x": where x is a noun present on the map, moves robot to x's position.
• - pickup: picks up and holds whatever the robot is standing on
• - drop: drops whatever the robot is holding
• - goto "#": passes execution back to line # (will automatically break when time runs out or mission conds are met, no infinite recursion for you!)
• - interact: uses whichever object is currently being held
• - and more!
