Epic Tapper (Hero Inn)

Idle tapper prototype with heroes, Photon multiplayer hooks and a companion admin web server.

Epic Tapper (working title "Hero Inn") was an idle-tapper prototype built around collectible heroes with elemental color variants (blue/green/red/yellow), boss fights and combo-based tap mechanics. The Unity 5.5 project includes a full Assets tree with custom Scripts, Levels, Units, Scenes and Photon Unity Networking integration, alongside licensed art/FX packs (Realistic Effects Pack, LightningBolt, Demigiant/DOTween, SuperFastShadows) used to dress the prototype.

Alongside the client, a matching ASP.NET backend (with its own load-balancing module) was built for server-side testing, and an IDLE Game Prototype Design Document (v2.1) describes the tapper/idle-progression design that the build implements.
