A downloadable game

Monster Game was designed back in 2016 for my Computer Science Degree. We had to select a project from a design brief in Software Engineering Fundamentals. The project we chose was to make a multiplayer version of Monster Game.

Monster Game is a game for 2 - 4 players. Each player starts off in one of the four corners. The monster, who starts off in the middle, will chase the closest player. The aim is to be the last player standing, by outrunning the monster and trapping other players so the monster will kill them.
