Treasure Hunt

“Treasure Hunt” is a 2 player realtime multiplayer game in which the players hide a bag of coins in a level, and try to find the opponents bag using a radar. Fastest to find his opponents bag of coins wins!

The game consists of two phases – a hiding phase and a finding phase.

During the hiding phase both players have 30 seconds to roam around the level and choose a spot in which to hide their bag of coins.

The finding phase allows the players 90 seconds to search for the opponents hidden bag using two tools: a growing radar which originates from the player and continues growing in size as long as the player holds down the “E” key, and a drop-able radar with a fixed point originating wherever it’s dropped and a fixed smaller range. The radars turn green when the enemies bag is within their range.

The mechanic works in practice as such:

1. Hold down the larger radar until you  get a hit
2. Release the radar and start walking towards a likely hit location, then start holding e again
3. If you don’t get a hit, attempt a different section of the earlier radar hit.
4. If you do get a hit, narrow down the likely area by stopping and starting the radar and getting hits with a smaller and smaller radius.
5. Once within a narrower likely area, start triangulating exact location by using the drop-able radars and finding the overlap hit radiuses.

Whoever find the opponents bag faster win the round, with a best of 3 structure.
