Overview
Timeout! is a system-driven 2D arcade-style beat-em-up that utilizes system design to create a game effectively, primarily focusing on the systematic organization and reflection of data which are commonly found in games that save and load data from files without the use of Unity's Player prefs. Your main objective is to beat the high score that's set in the machine.

Game Feature
The core feature of the game is to move around and hack away at any incoming enemies. This is the bread and butter of classic arcade beat-em-ups that I was trying to mimic when creating this game.
As you progress, you will earn coins that allow you to upgrade your character's stats, allowing you to stay in the level for longer and earn more points over a longer period of time, eventually clearing the high score and freeing Sam.

Game Systems
The systems can be broken down into 2 different types of data. Static (reference) and Dynamic data. Static data is implemented for features like difficulty progression, wave spawn data. Dynamic data is utilized for features like achievements and game states. The breakdown of the databases are available in the website below.
The prototype is available on my itch.io page, available to play online without needing to download!
