Description
ArtHiss is a single player top-down game where the player controls a painter snake who must complete drawings on a canvas. By collecting paints, avoiding oil stains and obstacles, the snake grows longer and harder to control. The gameplay combines classic Snake mechanics with creative painting and scoring combos.
My Role
This was my first Unity project and also my first time working with a large team. I was fully responsible for the programming:
Core gameplay (snake movement, wrap-around, growth, death conditions).
Coloring system and color storage management.
Power-ups (Special Paint) and punishments (Oil Stain).
Scoring system and combo multipliers.
Support for UI and HUD integration.
Even though the code quality needed improvement, I managed to optimize the game so that it ran without performance issues. This project taught me how to collaborate in a team, structure a complex project, and make technical decisions independently.
