A 3d puzzle game where the player has to discover shapes in shadows by orientating floating objects, written in C++.

Sphinx Dream was 5 week group project for Saxion University in which we were tasked to create a 3d game by writing our own c++ game engine using openGL for rendering and Lua integration for scripting. As lead programmer in a team of 3 programmers and 3 artists my responsibilities included setting up parallel workflows for game designers and programmers, planning the code structure of the application and creating a Lua API.

my highlights:

• OpenGL rendering engine using GLEW.
• directional, point and spotlights.
• real-time shadows using shadow maps.
• custom shaders using GLSL.
• Lua integration with LuaBridge.
• Runtime asset loading and UI modification using lua.
