Paintbrawl

Paintbrawl is a first person shooter aimed at anyone who has played with msPaint at some point in their lives. Players must compete in teams of two – five. The aim of the game is to out fight and out draw your opponents. Four players of the team vs another team of four in a tradition first person shooter style.

The drawing part comes into play where one player is the artist for the team. The game is designed to recognise certain shapes representing power ups, obstacles and weapon upgrades. As the team of four fights it out on the map the artist is in a control room with a top down view of the battlefield. The artist can then draw obstacles and drag them onto the map to hinder the opposing team. In the same fashion the artist can draw power ups and weapon upgrades and drag them onto player to change the flow of battle. All drawings have a cooldown and the power ups are gated by objectives that players can capture for their artist. Weapon upgrades are gated by player experience, so as the players battle they each gain experience and can then be rewarded with a new weapon of the artist design.
