Wolverine Soft Projects

Game development projects run by members of Wolverine Soft are listed below. Project pages are likely to contain short summaries of the projects as well as download links.

All games listed here are provided on an "as is" basis, programmed by student developers for non-profit purposes. Contact the developers to file bug reports, and feel free to comment on what they have done.

Completed Projects

Though some developers might never consider a game "complete", these are the projects that have an actual playable component. It is unlikely that any project in this section will have much further development.

These games were contributed from various sources. Many of them were entries in Wolverine Soft contests. Some were done for EECS 494: Computer Game Design and Implementation.

Cancelled Projects

Most game undertakings that aren't seen through to their completed state aren't really failures; in most cases, actually, a project is abandoned because a developer finds something new and better to work on.

Here are the games that were but are no longer in active development. Maybe some adventurous developers out there might want to finish what the original developer started?
