Key Gameplay Features
The FloodMaster
The FloodMaster (Zamboni) was created using real world vehicle physics. This allowed us to replicate how a Zamboni drives in the real world. Ensuring a crisp simulation and an entertaining ride for everyone!
The Ice
The Ice was built using Unity’s URP (Universal-Rendering-Pipeline). It was created by merging two shaders together, one ‘clean’, shiny ice material, and one ‘dirty’, cloudy ice material. As the Floodmaster moves around the ice it removes the dirty material. Simulating the player ‘cleaning’ the ice.
Dynamic Cameras and Arena
RinkMaster consists of several different camera aspects; Third Person, First Person, Top Down, and what we call ‘Fan-View’. We allow the player to swap between these views whenever they please. These different Cameras create beautifully cinematic yet strategic gameplay.
