Tenebrosity
About the Project
Tenebrosity is a short first person puzzler game made in Unity. It is a 2 player online co-op game that uses Photon Engine's Dedicated Servers for online replication. It was made as part of our 2nd game project and took 4 weeks of development. We play as 2 cultists who are trying to escape the cult's mansion, they need each other to solve the puzzles and get the key to their freedom.
​
My role on this project was mainly that of a Network Programmer and I also worked extensively on the UI of the game. Additionally I also worked on a debug console for the game to make use of developer cheats, it was really helpful during the production of the game.
Creating and Joining Rooms
Photon offers a range of regional servers we can connect to. The game automatically offers you the best server location on a dropdown before joining. The player can join a server of their choice to play the game.
Players can create rooms with a unique string.
Players are shown a list of joinable rooms based on a Callback.
I was tasked with setting up the rooms, parse it to the players, & Spawning the Players correctly and starting the game for the players.
Debug Console
Creating a hidden debug console that we can use to introduce various cheats & commands in the game. Very helpful while dev testing. Adding of commands was made easy and simple, so they could be added from anywhere.
