Broken Gears
The Game
Broken Gears is a tower defense game where you as the player step into the role of a factory operator tasked with overseeing the robot manufacturing line. These war robots are programmed by a viscious AI that after a system corruption gets hell bent on destroying all life on earth. It's your job to prevent these robots from ever seeing the light of day and the only way to do this is to reverse engineer any and all scrap you can get your hands on into machines to strip the robots apart piece by piece.
My Role
I started out as the only programmer in a 4 man team, after a few weeks into this project we decided that I should make the planning and keep everyone on track. In the end we were able to deliver a polished working game on the deadline.
Recently 1 of the artists and I have begun reworking the game with the knowledge and skills we’ve gathered over the last year so we can hopefully release it on steam some time in the future.
