What was needed?
In my seceond year reading Computer Science at Chester University I was given an assignment to create a simple video game using Java.
What was created?
The game I chose to create was a version of the retro classic Mars / Moon Lander games where you control a probe or landing module on to a moon or planet.
In The Mars Lander you can choose to alter how the game is played such as gravity strength, there are also many different types of ermergancies that the user will have to react to as they attempt to land their probe.
What made it different?
The theming is all based on space, from the backgrounds to the controls this adds to the feel of the game.
