Unity Game
Project Overview
Duke Farm is a stimulation game built in the Unity 3D engine. The player works as a new farmer to grow and sell grains, interact with NPRs, raise farm animals and upgrade the tent into a house.

My Contributions
I am the game designer and programmer of this project. It was made in a beginner level Unity class at Duke University.
Duke Farm is a simulation game built in Unity. The inspiration comes from being a first year student at Duke University. The main character is a farm boy who wears basic design and have the look of an exciting new student. The boy started living in a tent because he is poor. When the boy goes to the field, he meets a grain farmer who is friendly waving at him. He learns that in order to make money, he must raise grains and sell them in the town. He works hard and save up enough grains. Finally, he visits the animal & house farmer in the town. Notice there is a lot more buildings and animals in the town. The boy sells the grain to the animal farmers and gets some farm animals. He also learned that once he owns 5 animals, he can earn more money to upgrade his tent to a house.
The logistic of the game is simple, but it reflects the journey of a new student going from having nothing and knowing no one to settling down in the new town. The characters and the scenes in the game are all from the Unity Asset store. In this class, I also learned about animation, c#, lighting, sound, scene transition, UI and many other functionalities of Unity. I hope you enjoy playing this simple game.
