Juiciness Learning Resource

The Juiciness Learning Resources lets you start out with a simple arcade-style space shooter game. However, you can add JUICE to it! How much camera shake do you want? Light effects? Sounds? Particles? You can easily configure a multitude of settings and see how juice affects the player experience. The game is designed to be used by game design students who want to be able to experiment with these concepts themselves.

Please reach out if you want to use this game in your teaching!

In the download section you will find the documentation of the different settings as well as some sample configurations.
