And Fries - GGJ24

My teams submission for the Global Game Jam 2024. You play as a fast food employee working the window at the drive-through, where you must listen closely to what the customer orders, enter the request, bag, and serve.

My role for this project was lead programmer, although we all wore many hats during the process. This was my first game jam experience and it was a real rollercoaster of emotions. There was a lot of back and forth feelings of whether we were going to be able to pull the game off or not, within the time limit.

One of the main challenges for me during this project was building the audio system that played the customer's order. It wasn't that the system itself was difficult, but I built it before we had any audio so I wasn't actually able to test it properly until very late in the process. I will say though, that once we got the audio in, and I ran it for the first time and heard the audio play as intended, it was a really great feeling. I found it hilarious and awesome. 10/10, would stress myself out again!

NOTE: The version in these images/video are from a slightly more polished version than what was originally submitted for the game jam, as we wanted to fix some minor issues that we didn't have time to originally.
