Context
Plush Attack was my very first Unreal engine 5 game.
We did it for the Unreal Engine project at the IIM Digital School in Paris.
It was really challenging and stressfull but I still had a lot of fun making it and I learned a lot during these 4 weeks.
Tasks
Level Design
I made Plush attack's level design with another designer.
I placed all the assets and spawnpoints myself. The confetti canon and sugar spawnpoints right next to the player's spawn are like a tutorial and each item spawn randomly on one of the spawn points after it has been picked up to encourage the player to explore the map.
We both worked on the level's landscape and the separation between each section (bottom for the playground, top left for the forest, top right for the hill).
Timer & Score
Since Plush attack was our programmer's frist Unreal Engine 5 project, I and another designer had to code a bit to help them out.
I personnaly coded the timer in the level and the score system using the timer's value at the end of the game and writing it on the game over screen and the main menu.
It was really interesting to code features in a big project and I learned a lot both from this experience and from our programmer's advices.
Colliders
During Plush attack's production, we realised that the props colliders where messed up and had to be done by hand.
So, I had to set the colliders for all the props so the player could use them but since the enemies cannot jump, I had to make invisible ramps so both the enemies and the player could climb on the assets.
I tried to make the colliders as precise as possible to make this assets more interesting, fore exemple :
- the piles of sand in the sandbox can stop enemies.
- you can climb and slide on the toboggan.
- you can use the swing to jump above a crowd of enemies.
Itch.io
I made most of the Itch.io page, I wrote all the texts, made the input montage and the page's banner.
