Ping chronicles the adventures of the MNL Ping.exe, a cybership from the system of "Mary's New Laptop" which travels the internet ridding various neighboring systems of a viral infection.
The graphics are heavily procedural, using only a few basic textures and twisting them about with various mathematical fomulae.
I was given an assignment in college to create a game in 2 weeks with only the prompt "Discovery." I built it in my then-current game engine, Tara. The music & sound effects aren't mine. It was a 2 week project, I did what I could.
