Mood
666
“Mood” is a fast-paced shooter inspired by “Doom” and set in a cyberpunk sci-fi universe. Embrace the thrill of high-speed combat, where every kill builds your combo meter, amplifying your power and speed. Push your Mood Meter combo to the max to enhance your abilities and unleash devastating execution moves. But beware: hesitate and the combo drains, taking your power with it. Stay on the offensive, find the cube-crystals and obliterate them to close down the portals once and for all. Humanity's fate is in your hands!
My contributions
- Health Pickup and basic checkpoint system
- Shaders (Portal, crystals, sirens, enemy execution, glow shaders)
- VFX (smoke and sparks)
- Gun rotation to make it more visible for the player
Comments
In this project I explored shaders and VFX in Unreal Engine.
I wanted to collaborate to make the game better looking and learn more about general shaders and Niagara system.
MoodHealthPickup
Restores a certain amount of health (HealAmount) to the player character when picked up, plays a sound when collected and destroys itself after use.
UMoodHealthComponent* HealthComponent = MoodCharacter->FindComponentByClass<UMoodHealthComponent>();
This retrieves the “UMoodHealthComponent” attached to “MoodCharacter”, which is a custom component responsible for managing the player character's health.
Crystal Shader
The crystals are items to be destroyed by the player to finish the game. Must be visible in the dark.
Execution Shader
When the enemy is weak, the execution shader activates on the body of it.
