Inspiration

Reveille Run was inspired by Google chrome's dinosaur game, obviously with a TAMU twist.

Construction Zone

The game was built using Mayflower, Justin May's Java game engine (originally made for his APCS classes). All game art was made using make8bitart.com and photoshop.

Challenges

Ryan makes typos or logic errors sometimes and then doesn't catch them until he runs it and the program gives an index out of bounds error... Also Michaela took around 3 hours to make the first two frames of Reveille because she couldn't figure out how dogs run.

Thank You!

To nordie7 on soundcloud for use of their 8bit rendition of the war hymn, and for Justin May for being endlessly awesome. We found a bug in Mayflower and within 15 mins of us telling him about it, he had pushed the fixes for it. Love ya Mr. May.

What We Learned

Michaela learned how to use Mayflower while Ryan had to quickly relearn and understand the new features implemented since the last time he used it. We also learned that we love doing hackathons and can't wait to participate in our next one!
