Dungeon Crawler RPG Prototype

The idea behind this project was to create a dungeon crawler which combines ideas from a few different RPGs such as Legend of Grimrock and Shadow Hearts. The player could navigate around the level in real-time, while the combat would be turn-based once initiated. During combat, the player needs to time their attacks well in order to hit the monsters, otherwise they would miss. I programmed this game in Unreal Engine 4 entirely with Blueprints using Object-Oriented Programming concepts.

The gameplay features I implemented include:

• Grid-based real-time movement.
• Door / Key interaction.
• Player inventory tracking.
• Battle commands menu.
• Time-based combat interactions with enemies.
• Chests – interaction, item animation, dialog notification.
• Stair climbing and camera panning transitions.
