Last Cell Standing

Description: 
Earth, meteorite, man and a sun flower
Information: 
These four images are stills from a 30 second intro animation for a Tower Defense (TD) game. The game is a semester project in a course at UAC Darmstadt, Germany. We were supposed to built the game with a pre-built Flash TD development kit which was provided by a tutor. Our group came up with the idea of building a TD where microscopic alien viruses fight against a human's immune system.

The viruses came to earth on their little spaceship that looks like a meteorite. They unintentionally crash with a human's head by what their spaceship gets stuck. The alien commander called Generalien wants to leave earth as fast as possible. The General of the human's immune system immediately fights the invaders. The TD player's objective is to command the General's soldiers to stop the Generalien's army of dangerous viruses.

It was my turn to create the intro for the game and the main menu screen. As written above the four images are samples from the intro animation. The animation itself cannot be shown online because of legal issues.
