Ask any gameplay programmer and most will agree that multiplayer games are the most difficult to develop. So why not build a multiplayer game that adds the additional technical challenge of augmented reality? What could possibly go wrong? A lot, it turns out.
The combined challenges of networking a competitive fighting game, syncing game data across two real-world spaces, the performance limitations of mobile, all with no control over the player camera and environment create a recipe for game development chaos. This talk will dive into the solutions the Jadu team developed to overcome the chaos and ship a first-of-its-kind multiplayer augmented reality fighting game.
Attendees will gain insight into the technical constraints and challenges that come with developing a fast-paced multiplayer AR mobile game. Attendees will understand the solutions the team at Jadu AR formulated to overcome these challenges, the technologies we used and the reasoning behind game design decisions we made.
This is intended for game developers working on AR games or those interested in doing so.
