Arachnet: A 3D Video Game
Senior Project: 1995-1996
VR-1, Inc. develops 3D, multi-player video games for the PC market for
publishers such as Merit Studios, Interactive Magic, Epicenter and Rocket
Science. Much of the game development takes place in St. Petersburg, Russia,
where VR-1 has over 30 programmers. Over the past few years VR-1 has developed
an object-oriented 3D game engine which allows one to create 3D game
environments such as flight simulators, Doom-style games, and other virtual
reality based applications. The goal of this project was to create the game
concept and to develop an application using this technology. In this
futuristic game, Arachnet, freedom of information has been squelched by a
digital tyrant corporation controlling the Net. The goal is to program an army
of digital insects to regain control of the Net. It was developed in C++ using
an object-oriented approach and runs under DOS.
