Summer #UE4jam Submission Thread!

[MENTION=8] [/MENTION] Where can I send our informations? I can’t send a PM. :frowning:


It’s developed for PC. The gameplay is simple: reach the end without being eaten by monsters (that will start chasing you once you hit an obstacle). Hitting an obstacle will slow you down, making it easier for you to get eaten. After passing level 1, level 2 is more mellow in comparison as there’s no monster - try to see who can reach the end the fastest :slight_smile:

Team name: Empr1ze

Submission name: empr1ze_silentescape
Genre: Action/racing/horror
Assets: The textures used for the walls were used with a stock photo. The textures for the obstacles were used with the ones included with StarterContent. The particle effects originate from the StarterContent, as well. All music, sound, and menu art were custom made by me within Game Jam period. The spaceship model was made by a friend.

Controls: press Shift (repeat) to accelerate; arrow keys for movement.

Hey guys, I found a way to send PMs: https://forums.unrealengine.com/faq.php?s=&do=search&q=pm&titleandtext=1&match=all

But for some reason, some of us don’t have ‘permission’, nor is there an option to send PM in my control panel, so I think we should let this be known ASAP?

We made a Fantasy Shop simulator inspired by job simulator. It is made for the vive, and requires room scale, best with about 2.5 X 2 meters. We felt that having large quantities of monsters around your shop as customers was a comedic way to portray blessing in disguise. It is felt (hopefully) better through the experience than this explanation.

We used meshses from the Infinity Blades Firelands asset pack as well as inifinty blades weapons asset, and infinity blades adversaries meshes (and animations) , and the VR template hands, commentary box, and their associated textures.
We also used free music from ourmusicbox.com as well as 3 free pngs as sprites.

We are a team of 5 programming students so we focused mainly on the programing aspects of the game

Gameplay:
There are three components to our game. The Furnace, the Anvil, and the Grindwheel.
The goal of the game is to make weapons through these mini-games and satisfy the customers.

Controls:
Motion Controller Triggers to interact with objects to grab them, pick them up, etc.

Royalty Assets:

  • Sound Effects from Freesound.org (secret powerup, SMG, and explosions)

Original Assets:

  • Everything else (including the music) was created by ‘yours truly’.

Story:
You just returned from a battlefield after merely surviving an attack from enemy air-raids. As the only survivor from your unit and no vehicle or radio support, you’ve just walked a long way through the dry and heavy desert, and still need to find your way back to your base. However the base is heavily guarded with mines and you need to carefully make your way through them without tripping on them.

In times like these, there’s only one man to trust.

Controls:

WSAD - Move
Space - Jump
LMB - Fire Weapon

Story: You play as an evil super villain, known only by the mysterious nickname “The Pie-man” and you go around throwing pies and pastries in people’s faces to make them get fat as a part of your evil secret plan. But will you succeed?

Stuff I used from before: I copied over some of the logic for the options menu and used a couple of sound clips from my previous game jam entries.

What is it: It’s a turn based tactical strategy game. So you can do most things with the mouse and the UI buttons. You have to select a position to move to and then hit the green fist button (or spacebar) to do that action. The same applies for using skills, target the enemy/ground and hit the green fist button (or spacebar) and something will happen. Once you’re all out of movement and action points or don’t want to do anything more, hit the blue clock button to end your turn. Then the active enemies get their turn and attack you or heal or run away (each different looking enemy has different stats and skills). You win by defeating all the enemies in the battle area and ending your turn. There are 5 fights total and they are certainly probably maybe not impossible. The theme connection comes out from the newspaper headlines that you get for beating each of the fights.

TEAM INFO:

Team Name: Cyber Shamans
Team Count: 2
Team Members: Sai Narayan (me) - Art and Programming, Chase Bethea - Sound

GAME INFO
Game Name: Counting your Blessings
Game Genre: Puzzle
Game Description: In this game, death is the blessing in disguise! Dying is what helps you move forward, and you need to figure out how to kill your character if you want to win. There are 10 levels, which explore a few mechanics that are made possible by a dynamic material/element system as seen in Breath of the Wild! What this means is that everything in the game is assigned a Material, like Wood/Metal, and Elements like Fire, Water, Wind can interact with these Materials and produce all sorts of interesting effects!

ASSET INFO:

Character Model was rigged and animated using the Auto-Rigger and Store animations.
The project uses some Starter Content materials and textures (Wood, Steel and Rust), the default Skybox, some Starter Content particles(Smoke and Steam), and one Starter Content sound effect(Fire). The other sound effects are sourced from creative commons. The music is made by Chase Bethea.
Everything else was made during the Jam.

CONTROLS:

Uses only mouse and keyboard.

Pre Jam Content:
Nothing, everything seen and used in this game was created during and for the Summer Game Jam, even the character controller was built from scratch

Summary:
In the distant future an elite group of soldiers referred to as Spartans exist, they are the best of the best and must go through intense physical and mental training. Only the greats make it out alive. You are one of the new recruits, in order to prove yourself as a valuable member to the squad, you must first pass the training facility test. Recruits who make it out with the best time and who manage to stay alive become permanent members. Are you good enough to become one?

Relation to Theme:
I can’t say everything as it will ruin the surprise, but what I can say is, don’t judge a book by its cover!

Controls:
WASD - Move forward, left, backwards and right
Space - Jump, pressing the jump button twice will initiate a double jump
Left Shift - Sprint
C - Crouch, if held while sprinting the player will initiate a slide
ESC - Pause
In Order to Wall Run - Players must jump towards a specific wall that can be ran on (Yellow walls that are floating) and hold space as well as w as they collide with the wall. If both buttons are held and the players continues looking forward, a wall run will be initiated

Bonus Tips:

  • Wait around at the menu for a few seconds to see a cool effect!
  • Play the game against your friends and see who can set the best time, this game was built with speedrunning in mind, so go as fast as you can and compete to be the best!
  • Pay attention to the different colors of tiles, they may give you hints on what movement must be used in order to reach the next area, or warn you of potential danger

Most importantly, make sure to have fun! Thanks for checking out our game and thanks to who helps organize this amazing event! It was a great time building this game from the ground up!

Notes:

  • The wall run mechanic was based off of a Youtube tutorial, not sure if that really counts as a pre jam content or not so I will include it here just to be safe
  • Make sure to play version 0.2.0
  • The lighting got messed up a little in the menu, sorry about that!

Submission: Stab_What Doesn’t Kill

Link to Game: Dropbox - Stab_WhatDoesntKill.exe - Simplify your life
Edit: Link to Game: So, the packaged game works on my computer, but when someone tries to download it, it won’t open. After telling it to run, even though it’s an executible, it breaks and I get the Error: “CreateProcess() returned 2”. After working at it for awhile, I zipped the whole file instead of just uploading the exe. Now it opens. Hopefully this can still be accepted. Here’s the new link: Dropbox - Stab_WhatDoesntKill.zip - Simplify your life There’s two copies in there, the one from the 4th and the repackaged one with the correct name Stab_WhatDoesntKill which does seem to run.

Game Name: What Doesn’t Kill
Team Name: Stab

Names:
PreJam content - some of the base character logic learned from the Unreal live training tutorial, m_hurt sprite material

Game Info: Rogue-like game where what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger, a blessing in desguise. Balance your health as you face spikes and jumps to become more powerful and break through previously unbreakable barriers.

Before this jam, I’d only done 2-3 Unreal specific tutorials. This is the first game I’ve programmed and it was a blast! This was also my first time animating, turns out, it’s hard lol. The menu seems a little laggy on my computer, not sure if it’ll be the same on others.

The game is hard, but I assure you it is beatable. I played and played until I beat it.

Ever heard of the trolley problem? Well you’ve potatoes to save or sacrifice for the greater good. Cause mayhem, chaos, and more screenshakes in order to prevent disasters.

Press R to restart the level. (You’ll need this)
Hold F1 for Controls.

Don’t panic if the end screen for the level doesn’t show up right away, it will! (Panic if it takes more than a minute though)

Devs finished the game. Multiple times. It’s definitely winnable!

Demo

Summary
We’ve developed a multiplayer game like it was played before, two players in one keyboard. It’s a round based action game in 2.5D where the goal is to kill the other player with different weapons and getting passive stats when receiving damage.

Theme
We’ve interpreted the theme as a way to look at the good side of the bad things that can happen. That’s why, in the game, if you lose hp you earn a reward based on your missing health, so the less hp you have the more rewards you can stack up with a higher impact on your gameplay. Chances of comebacks are high :wink:

Controls
Player 1:
A D: Lateral movement
W: Jump
S (while jumping): Ground pound
SPACE: Shoot

Player 2:
Left Right: Lateral movement
Up: Jump
Down (while jumping): Ground pound
0-Numpad: Shoot

Pre-Jam Content
All the game content has been created from scratch except for:

  • The Blueprint_Effect_Explosion from the starter content.
  • A C++ code to setup the local multiplayer.

Background music from:
Desembra - Hit 'Em from NCS
