The Water Dragon

The Water Dragon, based on the Chinese folktale “The Four Dragons” By Rob Warring, is a top-down, 8-bit arcade game that contains a playable dragon, friendly townspeople, water to collect, and guards to avoid. You will be able to control the dragon using the WSAD keys. The goal is to satisfy all the nearby townspeople with water collected from the nearby lake before time runs out and without getting caught by the guards surrounding the town. The enemy guards are spread out across the map. If a guard comes in contact with you or you run out of time before satisfying all the townspeople, you will lose one of the 2 lives that are given to you for each stage and after 2 lives, the game will end with a “Game Over” text. After the player has come in contact with the lake, the dragon will have the ability to shoot out up to 4 shots of water from a very short range using the spacebar key to give to the townspeople spread out across the stage. If you run out of shots, then you will need to go back to the lake to refill the amount of water you have.
