Unity Game Development

Laxersaz is a duo from Düsseldorf, Germany, that existed first as a music project from 1999 on before we discovered the joy of making games.

Heinz Kessler is the graphics, animation and 3D part whereas all code is done by me. The game design and sound part is done by both.

We have been making games since the year 2000, mostly in Flash and ActionScript. After moving into different fields of employment and not doing any game development for many years, we decided in 2019 to learn Unity together to pick up this hobby again and learn more about interactive 3D environments, C# and game design.

So far, we have finished and published the following games for free.

Pressure Plunge

You want to set a new deep diving record with your diving bell. You have to avoid the moving rocks, otherwise you will lose precious breathable air. You steer the diving bell left and right with the [Arrow keys]. With [Space] you can slow it down. Be careful, this also consumes air... Good luck on your way down and back to the surface - dive deeper and use your air well! Start the game with [Enter] - it starts right away! With [P] you can take a short toilet break during your journey. This is our entry for the Brackeys Game Jam 2023.2 with the theme "Diving Deeper": https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-10
