Since we stress the game to promote tribes, we built the characters based on the local tribes so that the player will indirectly being familiarized with Indonesian existing tribes. In this game, we use three tribes, which are Asmat tribe, Dayak tribe and Minahasa tribe. Each of them has their own regional cloth and carries their regional weapon.

  • Score

The player has to collect apples to increase the score. Once you success to reach or touch the apple, the score will be added one, and so on.

  • Contribution

Since i don’t really understand about how to make an animation for the character, i made the cover page (loading page, menu with the buttons, backsounds for the cover, the backgrounds). During the process, i got some anxiety because i didn’t know how to make a good game as i don’t have any basics, and we can’t meet each other too (because the quarantine). I was also confused with the concept (for the cover) like, how do i make it good so the game doesn’t look boring, does it look simple?, etc. But after the process done, turns out that making a game was fun. I learnt how to make a popup bar (for the game over option, level complete option), pop up buttons, make a loading bar, use lerp function to create a smooth effect for menu effect transition (in characters part), use liteTween behavior, etc. In the end, i gained so much knowledge on how to use construct 2.
