Red Light, Green Light – Full Game in Houdini Crowds - Houdini Course

Hello Everyone, 

In this course, we will build the entire Red Light, Green Light game using Houdini's Crowds System. We will incorporate all logics/rules of the games and make a complete, working simulation inside Houdini.

From game timer, randomly deciding crowds that dont follow the rules, shooting and eliminating the crowds that dont follow the rules, to deciding the winners of the game, we will do everything from starting to finish from scratch in Houdini. 

When the light is green, the crowds will move and when it turns red, they will freeze. Some agents won't freeze, and they will be eliminated.

This setup is fully procedural and controllable. 

Also, we will build a system to dynamically change the path of the crowds to avoid the dead ones. This system can be used anywhere outside this project too, its an innvovative method to make sure the crowds avoid certain things. 

We will cover the entire crowd workflow, from creating agents to adding clips/states to simulating them using crowd solver. 

Also this course can be followed by anyone with basic knowledge of Houdini and VEX to advanced Houdini users.

Thank you.
