Additional Context

I convinced my teacher to let me solo develop for a semester-long game project, and what you see was all done between 16 credits and a part time job! Knockout Arena is the combination of two game ideas that I've had for a while, and it is proof of my game design and development skills. Through this project, I gained great experience with advanced ragdoll physics, AI design and functionality, level design (I have made Portal 2 and Warcraft III maps before, but not Arena), systems design, and much more.
