Agamemnon's Curse

Welcome to the Agamemnon's Curse website!

Agamemnon's Curse is a 3D action adventure game created by seniors at DigiPen Institute of Technology in 2006-2007. The player must navigate the hero Alabama Jones through a series of physics based puzzles and deadly booby traps to retrieve the golden mask of Agamemnon.

The student team wrote all the physics code seen in the game, creating a ragdoll physics engine that works with a rigid body engine. Thus the character acts like a solid body when moving and walking on surfaces, but when put in a situation endangering the body, it reverts to a ragdoll.

The game is not designed to challenge strategic or action skills. Rather, it's an opportunity to explore the game world and witness the physics in action. A Playback feature allows players to witness the various demises of the lead character.
