Interactive 3D-Animation
Interactive 3D-Animation is a main field of study at the University of Ulm,
Faculty
of Computer Science,
Department of Media Informatics.
The project was the development of a 3D-Game with focus on character-animation.
Ubersled is a racing game with toboggans:
The Sleds
In the game you have the choice out of 3 sleds:

The first one is the "Blue Racer", he has excellent acceleration and agility but is also not as fast as the other sleds.
The second one is the "Girlies Ride" which has medium acceleration, medium agility and medium end-speed.
The third is the "Danish Dynamite" itīs the fastest sled, but also mad in agility, acceleration and deceleration.
The Tracks
Ubersled comes with 2 tracks, both are not too hard but you should watch out on some curves:
In the Track-Menu you can choose between the different tracks, the track "Tricky Track" is the default one. This track has many sharp curves, looping, a long corcsrew and tunnels. But you should really watch out on some sharp curves.
The Music
The music menu is very variable, and you by yourself choose which music you want to hear:
In the Music-Menu you can choose weather you want to play MP3/Ogg-Vorbis Songs or you have the choice
to hear an Internet Radio Stream. Because of the copyrights only one MP3 song is provided with the game, this
even isnīt a song, but you here outtakes of our recording session, where weīve had many fun ;).
Itīs really easy to adjust the menus, you only have to insert your mp3 songs or radio streams
into a xml-file and with the next restart of the game you can choose your sound.
The Game itself
Get ready to rumble. You are in the sled and race against time, your only wish is to be the
fastest and rank yourself into the TOP 5 players. You watch your hud, ahhh boost is ready
to speed you up, but watch out and use it whisely you wonīt get much chances to use the
boost suggestively.
Here we go, some ingame Screenshots:
You have loopings ingame, here you see 3 loopings in a row:
Watch out on steep turns ;):
Racing through a tunnel:
Biiiiiiiig jump:
Where do you want to go today?:
Are you good enough for the TOP 5?
Are you really? Try it yourself ;)
