Type of game : Roguelike in third person
Tools used : Unreal Engine with its Gameplay Ability System
Team : Five students from the Université du Québec à Chicoutimi
Role : Rooms and spells programming / Game and level designer
Summary : This game is the final project of my baccalaureate. It is a "Roguelike" in third person developed on Unreal where the main theme is time.
Project description
In the Lab was a team project we did on Unreal whose main theme is time. We created a third-person "Roguelike" where all the elements of the main character are attached to the time he has left. So taking damage takes away time, casting spells takes away time, etc.
The objective of the game is to pass through three rooms and beat the final boss without running out of time. If we run out of time, the game is over and we have to start again. Each playthrough is different, as the rooms before the boss are randomly selected.
In this project, I programmed the logic of the rooms and their traversal. I also programmed the creation of a game (selection of rooms according to our choices, etc.). Additionally, I programmed the main character's spells using Unreal's Gameplay Ability System including the UI. Finally, I created some of the rooms.
Slideshow and others
Since some elements of the game come from the library of the Université du Québec à Chicoutimi, I do not have the right to put the game or the code on any platform other than the university's Perforce. Therefore, the only things I can upload are screenshots. Despite everything, I still have the game and the code on my personal machine (for now).
