ALIEN UN-VASION

Description:

Developed for Lame Jam 54
In the game the player ejects people from their UFO who fall to the ground and destroy buildings with ragdoll physics.
The buildings were made destructible by dividing the building using Blender's cell divide feature to segment them into children and grandchildren (nodes and cells).
When a game object collides with a node the original mesh of the building is deactivated and the node meshes are activated. the collided node is then replaced with the child cells to create the shatter effect.

Built in Unity to resemble Blender environment.
When the game starts a maze is randomly generated and populated with "Suzanne"s (a monkey head that serves as a blender default object and unofficial mascot) who will hunt the player using the A* search algorithm.
The objective of the game is to find the donut that spawned at one of the 4 corners of the maze.
