Project Description
In order to learn Unreal Engines Gameplay Ability System (GAS) and to put other functionalities of the engine into practice, in my free time I am developing a small RPG. In addition to a skill system based on GAS and the Asset Manager, a minimap, a simple AI, a fast travel and a simple menu system are currently implemented in C++ and Blueprint. So far, the player can use five different abilities: Heal, Dash, Magic Beam, Area Damage and Fire Explosion.
In the future, I plan to create an open world. The landscape and key locations are already prototyped in Blender. To create the landscape, I plan to use World Creator, for the procedural generation of houses and other assets I plan to use Houdini.
For this project I use Perforce as version control system and YouTrack as issue tracker.
