    Flock

    hero

    A tech-demo sized game about a plane defending itself from an unending swarm of monkey heads.

    Tech

    • glow-extras-pipeline based rendering
    • 3D boid simulation with voxel caching
    • GPU-calculated billboard particles using Transform Feedback
    • Barebones qu3e physics engine wrapper for raycasts and collision detection

    Game

    • Kill the spawner spheres to hold back the swarm of monkey boids
    • Red boss spawners are tougher, and unleash a steady stream of boids
    • Collect green spheres to upgrade your weapon
    • Green spheres home in on the ship while not firing
    • Boost while not firing to dodge boids
    • Your ship is slower when flying backwards

    Building

    If you are not using MSVC, Flock requires Intel TBB to be installed, as a drop-in replacement for C++17 execution policies. It is searched for by CMake. All other dependencies are included as git submodules.

    Was tested to compile with clang 7.0.0-3 and MSVC 15.
