The Floor is Lava
The Floor is Lava is an original game prototype. It consists of a complete game loop of a 3D platformer adventure game. I scripted the movement controller and inventory system and integrated GameDev.TV's saving system. The games main feature is a series of boots that allow the player to cross a variety of barriers including lava.
