7DFPS – 7 Day First Person Shooter
Jun 16th 2012, 09:47
7DFPS is a competition that has been running for the past week. As part of our effort to help support game jams we hooked all participants up with some Pro Unity trials.
Head over to 7DFPS.org to check out all the entries and the super awesome keynote vid.
I’ve gone ahead and picked out a few of the great examples of Unity made projects, but I would encourage you to delve deeper into the site to find more.
HUGE congratulations to everyone who took part in this great challenge. And a round of applause for the organizers of 7dfps for doing such a fantastic job.
Flip’d – CHman
This was one of the first games to catch my eye, primarily due to the incredible progress that seemed to have been made in such a short period of time

The game uses a gravity flipping mechanic much like VVVVVV but with a stunning use of Beast lightmapping giving everything a very polished look
Numbergun – Art by Sofia Fristrom, 7 years old.
Particles by Zara Fristrom, 3 years old.
Programming by Jamie Fristrom, 42 years old.
And from one kind of awesome visuals to another, hand drawn textures.

This game caught my eye purely due to the fantastic art produced by some very talented kids.
Europa Concept – Quickfingers
As ever, Quickfingers has lived up to his alias and has produced something awesome in a very short period of time.

Maybe he should consider calling himself “Qualityfingers”?
So there is a small selection of the MANY many games produced over the last 7 days. I’d encourage anyone with some spare time this weekend to head over to the list of all games and check out what was created here. If you participated feel free to post links to the game in the comments below!
