GDW – Battle for Metal


The Game Dev Week is a game jam hold at the Trier University of Applied Sciences, where students design and implement a video game in their free time within a week.

Battle for Metal is a multiplayer top-down shooter for up to 8 players. The goal is to collect scrap parts that are located on the map. Those parts can be dropped off for points or they can be used as ammunition for the player’s weapon.

The game was developed with Java and libGDX. I participated as physics programmer and was also the lead of the physics team, being responsible for coordinating the work both within our team and with other departments, like gameplay and networking.
