This project is the reproduction of the 80's video game BurgerTime playable in multiplayer (LAN or Internet).
The object of the game is to complete a number of hamburgers while avoiding enemy foods.
Each board consists of a maze of planks and ladders in which giant burger ingredients (buns, patties, lettuce/tomato, etc.) are laid out. When the player walks the full length of an ingredient, it falls to the level below, knocking down any ingredient that happens to be there. A burger is completed when all of its vertically aligned ingredients have been dropped out of the maze and onto a waiting plate, and the player must complete all burgers to finish the board.
