A racing game where you smash through windows, made in a 3-day in-person game jam with 30 teams.
Xbox Gamecamp gave every team three days to build a game from one of three categories. We picked minesweeper.
I gave the team one goal: finish the game in day one and a half. That left the rest of the jam for polish instead of features.
We won our category and took best overall out of all 30 teams.
Core first. Exploding windows and movement got most of my time.
Scoped down. A small game that felt flawless beat a big one that felt rough.
Polish day. Every player-facing system was tuned in the last day and a half.
// Placeholder example: replace with your real snippet (10-20 lines max)
public void Explode(Vector2 hitPoint)
{
if (isBroken) return;
isBroken = true;
glassCollider.enabled = false; // player can now pass through
SpawnShards(hitPoint);
}Why it matters: one short caption on what this solves and why you chose it.
Optional one-line caption explaining the diagram.
Made windows explode & their colliders change using boolean logic
Implemented character movement and physics
Polished all player facing systems to feel smooth
Coordinated team efforts design & programming wise
Cutting the feature list early is what made the polish phase possible.
The day-and-a-half "game is done" milestone kept the whole team aligned.
Judges remembered how the game felt to play, not how much was in it.
