Human Origin Apocalypse
Multiplayer Pandemic-Themed Roller Game with Global Leaderboard
A casual multiplayer roller game built by the Advisory Apps team during the COVID-19 lockdown — players control a virus character that rolls around a stylised 3D city, consuming vehicles and objects to grow bigger, with real-time multiplayer matches and a global leaderboard for worldwide bragging rights.
Overview
About this project
Human Origin Apocalypse is an internal passion project the Advisory Apps team built during the COVID-19 lockdown to keep the studio creatively engaged while client work slowed. Built on a real-time game engine, the title puts players in control of a pandemic-themed virus character — SARS, COVID-19, or H1N1 — that rolls through a stylised 3D city map, consuming cars, pedestrians, and buildings to grow larger over the course of each round. The game ships with both single-player and online multiplayer modes, a global leaderboard for cross-region competition, character selection, score tracking, and in-game audio and tutorial controls — a self-contained casual game loop designed for short play sessions.
