Bomber!
LCC 2700 · Intro to Computational Media
Bomber! is a 2D, top-down flying game for the Atari 2600. You play a bomber pilot on a solo mission to thin out the enemy by taking out approaching tanks. We wanted to take the 2D scroller and add another dimension, using falling bombs instead of forward-firing guns.
Three of us built it from scratch. Our professor, Dr. Ian Bogost, listed it among his favorite Atari projects from all of his classes.
My roles
- Team Lead: Scheduled meetings, pitched the game to the class, coordinated the team, and kept quality and timing on track.
- Lead Designer: Came up with the game idea, built the plane and bomb sprites, and tuned gameplay for fun.
- Programmer: Coded the prototype and helped with the final code.
