Hexaguard

Project description

Welcome to Hexaguard, the ultimate gameplay-driven medieval fantasy tower defense game! You become the leader of the hexaguards, a group of powerful wizards who have escaped the destruction of your planet by your nemesis, you'll need to reunite with your scattered allies and defend your new home from the invaders.

Using a hexagon grid, you'll strategically place defensive towers to destroy waves of enemies, each with their own unique abilities and weaknesses. With stunning 3D stylized graphics and immersive gameplay.

Context

We formed our own company which is called Sneaky Kiwi Productions. We originally made hexaguard as students to make a fun game as a school assignment. This later evolved in us continuing the project to a more finalised product when given the opportunity by school.

Results

Our goal for this project was to create a unique tower defense experience. We ended up making a combination of a tower defense with rts elements.
We tested our game with our target audience (14-18 years old) and people outside of that age range during multiple playtest events organised by school and found that people enjoyed our concept.

About the project group

We are Ruud, Robbert and Daniël and together we form Sneaky Kiwi Productions. All of us are in our 6th semester of HBO ICT with a software profile and our specialization as ‘game design and technology’. We spent the last semester working on our game Hexaguard.
