Obstacle Assault V2
About
Hello! My name is Calae and I am learning UE5. I am following a course on GameDev.tv, linked here. This is the second finished project out of 5. However, I challenged myself to make some kind of changes to the game to go beyond just the tutorial.
This time I went with more of a coding challenge. I added platforms that can do more than just move back and forth from one location to another. These new platforms can have multiple stops, wait for a time at each stop, go at different speeds, and so forth!
I also challenged myself to make a change that would make the level designing part easier. I added a way to add a new stop and autofilling the location and rotation using the platforms' current location and rotation. It saved me from having to copy and paste values over and over. Additionally, I learned how to make display names of array elements much more readable. Instead of a stop being called "members: 4", I can optionally give it a name so I have a better idea of where it's pointing to.
Anyways, enough technical stuff! This game is almost the same as the other one, but with two new platforms right at the start. Step on the left platform to go on a wild ride and the right will take you on a scenic route to the castle. Controls are as follows:
- WASD: Move around
- Space Bar: Jump
- R: Restart level
- Escape: Exit game
Enjoy!
