3 comments by ambershee on Mar 15th, 2008 digg this super bookmark


Don't know what Shee Labs Mutator Week is all about? Read here! Us lot at Shee Labs Game Development are always cooking a nefarious scheme or two, in fact, we've already run through two mutator weeks, and are about to embark on our third!

The first week theme was 'Light', and saw some fantastic mutators put together. There's nothing like playing a game of 'Invisogib', where one shot kills, but all players are practically invisible and can only be seen by the flashlight they use.

In fact, you can check out all five of the mutators and download them for the PC already.

Week two went swimmingly, with more superb mutating, and a download will be ready some time next week, so keep your eyes wide open. The theme was 'Surprise', and boy are you in for some, from a wacky Crate Match mutator, to some funky health reallocation and randomly chosen weapon pickups.

Try using them in different combinations, and you'll get a different game every time - and this is the aim of the Mutator Week project, to promote experimental gameplay.

There's still plenty of time to hop on board ready for week three too, so if you're a programmer with a few hours spare, why not get in touch? If you're a mapper, how would you feel about a 'Map Month' that works the same way? Let us know!

'Till next time

This Mutator week should be a lot of fun.

I've only really used the unreal level editor and not looked into the scripting side of things so this should be really beneficial.

I'll just quickly link to some of the things I have been reading in prepertion to this week;

Udn.epicgames.com

This is pretty good for explaining how the code is structured. Talks about object orientated coding.

Wiki.beyondunreal.com

The unreal wiki is always good.

And I just picked up this book today from the library so I don't know if it is much good yet;

Amazon.com

I've only read 2 and a half chapters. Nothing much about coding yet, just stuff about the editor.

That's not entirely true - there are some fantastic other teams out there. Take the 'Air Buccaneers' team, as far as I recall, they were from Finland =]
