UE5 Combat System

UE5 Combat System is a solo project focused on developing intricate game mechanics, inspired by the Soulslike genre. This PC game showcases a robust combat system where players can collect various weapons, each with unique animations and combat styles. The game emphasizes strategic combat, with features such as weapon sheathing, diverse attacks, and advanced enemy AI.

The development of the UE5 Combat System involved creating detailed game mechanics using Unreal Engine 5 and Blueprint scripting. The project presented challenges, particularly in designing fluid and responsive combat animations, as well as implementing sophisticated AI behaviors for enemies. Through continuous testing and refinement, I successfully developed a dynamic combat system that offers players an immersive and challenging gameplay experience.
