Hi everyone!
We’re an indie team currently working on The Mage Slayer, a dark-fantasy action game built with Unreal Engine 5.

In this video, we’d love to share a glimpse of our stylish combat system – fast melee combos, elemental interactions, and comic-inspired VFX. Our goal is to deliver responsive hack-and-slash gameplay while keeping a strong stylized art direction.

Hello @An1ne ! Welcome to the forums here with us!

I’m already excited to learn more about this project. The character design and the combat look quite fun. It reminds me of a certain retro game that is currently slipping my mind, unfortunately. I’m also a little curious about what we see on the 2d design on the preview. Does the darker version of Krad indicate we may be seeing or using a shadow version of him in the game?
