#1 | Project Begins!

September 20th, 2024

Hello!

Today marks the official start of my passion project HvZ - 2D.

This game is combines two of my favorite hobbies: Nerf and video game development. This game is based on the PvP, PvE and modding elements of the Nerf / foamsoft hobby. I aim to replicate these as best as I can with my limited skills, in 2D form.

The guns, henceforth referred to as blasters, will be based on popular foam dart blasters such as the Game Face Trion or Worker Seagull. Their performance with different springs and barrels will be based on real world data in the form of spreadsheets.

For the full plan, the game design document can be found here. I'll update this regularly as development progresses. Pictured below is the development plan thus far.

This'll be the largest project I've undertaken to date. I will not let it fail. I want to leave a lasting positive impact on the Nerf hobby. I think a video game and FPS spreadsheets are a good contribution.

Thanks for reading!
