About The Game

Swift Space is a shoot'em up game developed by students at Hochschule Fresenius as part of a 2022 module.

As an Earth Federation pilot, it's your job to stop the alien aggressors from reaching defenseless Earth. To do this, penetrate deeper and deeper into the vastness of the universe and into the ranks of the enemy army. Destroy the attacking spaceships and avoid the asteroids so that your journey does not end in death.

Why We Did What We Did

Swift Space was only intended as a contribution to the university. With Student Publishing offering to publish Swift Space for us, we hope that as graduates of the college, it will ease our entry into the game design industry. We chose a playful cartoon style that is reflected in the models as well as the effects and backgrounds to both keep the development time short and create a game that can appeal to all ages.

What We Intend To Do

First and foremost, it's about being able to show something for our individual portfolio.

OPTIONAL:

Should Swift Space receive a larger number of downloads, we consider rolling out several updates:

  • changing background areas

  • new enemy types

  • new ship models

  • a campaign mode

Developers:

  • Niklas Büdel: Game Design, Engineering

  • Louis von Gersdorff: Art and 3D modeling

  • Cairê Friess: Music, SFX and sounddesign
