🧩 Battle on Wheels — Project BOW (MVP)

Codename: Project_BOW
Category: Game Development | Unity | Blender

Type: MVP (Minimum Viable Product)

🧠 Concept Overview

Battle on Wheels is my original MOBA-style tank battle game concept, where armored vehicles clash in strategic, fast-paced battles across dynamic arenas.

To bring this idea closer to reality, I created a Unity-powered MVP codenamed Project BOW — a small but functional prototype designed to capture the core mechanics and feel of the full game.

This MVP focuses on essential gameplay interactions — movement, combat, and camera dynamics — serving as the foundation for future iterations of the project.

⚙️ Tools and Technologies

  • Game Engine: Unity

  • 3D Modeling & Design: Blender

  • Assets Used: Unity Tank Tutorial Assets

  • Programming: C# (Unity Scripts)

  • Platform: PC Build (available in GitHub Releases)

Through this project, I combined the creative flexibility of Blender with the interactive power of Unity, learning how to design, import, and integrate custom assets into a fully functional environment.

🎮 Gameplay Mechanics in MVP

This early version of Project BOW includes the following features:

  • Player Tank Control: Move with W, A, S, D or arrow keys.

  • Combat Mechanic: Pick up a gun located on the map to enable attacks.

  • Enemy AI Tanks: Two AI-controlled tanks operate based on scripted logic.

  • Camera System: A camera icon on the HUD toggles between different viewing perspectives.

The goal was to create a simple yet playable experience that demonstrates the core loop of movement, weapon collection, and combat.

🚀 Development Experience

Developing Project BOW has been a valuable creative and technical journey.
I learned how to:

  • Script responsive player controls and AI behaviors in Unity.

  • Integrate Blender models into a Unity environment seamlessly.

  • Prototype game concepts rapidly using an MVP approach.

  • Balance gameplay design and performance within Unity’s ecosystem.

Even though it’s a small-scale prototype, this project reflects my process of experimenting, learning, and iterating to transform rough ideas into playable realities.

🧩 Future Plans

This MVP is only the first milestone.
Future plans for Battle on Wheels include:

  • Smarter, more dynamic AI opponents.

  • Weapon variety and upgrade systems.

  • Multiplayer or co-op support.

  • Enhanced maps and destructible environments.

  • Improved visuals and camera transitions.

The ultimate vision is to evolve Project BOW into a full-fledged tactical action game blending strategy, precision, and creativity.

Can Quantum Mechanics Tell Us Something About the Future?

------   For centuries, humans have been fascinated by the idea of predicting the future. Ancient civilizations turned to astrology — a system that, while not science in the modern sense, played a crucial role in advancing mathematics and astronomy. For example, ancient Indian and Babylonian scholars developed precise methods to track planetary motions, calculate eclipses, and design calendars — all under the umbrella of astrology. Even if their interpretive predictions were symbolic, their methods reflected structured, algorithm-like thinking. Modern physics takes a very different path. In quantum mechanics, the future of a particle is not determined with certainty, but with probabilities. The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle tells us that we cannot know both position and momentum exactly — instead, we calculate the likelihood of finding the particle in a particular state. This parallel inspired me to reflect on three simple thoughts: 1. Probability of outcomes Quantum mechanics...

Life: The Treasure of Happiness or the Trap of Pressure

🌠 Life: The Treasure of Happiness or the Trap of Pressure Somewhere between a smile and a sigh, a quiet question hides in every heartbeat — Is life a treasure chest of happiness, or a trap built from pressure? It’s a question we don’t just answer once — we keep rediscovering it, at every turn of our journey. 1. The Journey Begins: From Innocence to Awareness When we’re children, life is simple. The world feels like a playground — small, safe, and shimmering with endless possibility. We measure happiness in toys, friends, and laughter. Pressure? It doesn’t exist yet. Then adolescence arrives — that thrilling, chaotic blur of emotions and discovery. We begin to question, to dream, to imagine futures bigger than ourselves. And with dreams comes expectation. The first taste of pressure. Adulthood greets us not with answers, but with choices — some heavy, some confusing, some beautiful. And as years pass, we realize: “Life was never meant to be easy; it was meant to be meaningful.” In old ...
