Project Colosseum User Interface

7/8/2024

One of the most successful game development podcasters in the world, Zackavelli , creator of the Game Dev Field Guide with over a million listeners, is making a secret project. He has contracted me to implement the user interface.

The Game Dev Game Show is a livestream interview platform disguised as a quiz show. Zack will have his face and his interviewee's face overlaid on the game in Streamlabs/OBS, and together they will go through questions as talking points to extract information from the guest. Guests can activate powerups to gain an edge in the game, such as double points, double answer, or asking the audience for help.

There is also an audience participation component, where viewers can place answers in the Twitch chat and have their scores aggregated and tracked over time to see how much they really know.

I have earned a lot of experience with data-driven user interfaces in Unity on this project. I have also gained experience with All-in-one Sprite Shader , and was able to reuse a lot of my skills earned in the OSD Project .
