Combat prototype
About the project
Being recently enamored with GOW: Ragnarok, I decided to reimagine Kratos and the Oath Guard into a similar combat system in Unreal 5.1 while bringing some personal touches.
The main goals of the project:
-
Display my ability to design both boss AI and player combat
-
Create compelling design documents for different components
-
Practice Unreal Engine 5 & Blueprints
-
Drive an innovative feature to completion: Attack Combo Editor
Attack Combo Editor
Combat Gameplay
What is the attack combo editor?
A gameplay system that changes the attacks of 4 different weapon types.
They are the 2 handed, 1 handed or dual wield moves.
They are the customizable attack strings of your hero:

Light

Heavy
-
Evade
-
Counter
-
Run
-
Special
