Released April 2023
Personal Project

Crypt Raider is a 3D demo project made in Unreal Engine 5. The goal of the game is to figure out how to take the golden statue out of the mausoleum. The main feature showcases a grab system where the player can grab objects and set them down to achieve an outcome such as opening a door. It is programmed with a combination of both C++ and Unreal Engine 5's visual scripting system, Blueprints.

Game features include:

  • A small 3D demo scene with multiple art assets snapped together
  • A first person controller with an attached camera system
  • Multiple lights including spot lights and point lights attached to torch meshes
  • Basic post processing with exposure affecting lighting and level mood
  • A "grabber" system that allows the player to pick up, hold, and release grabbable items
  • A "mover" system that allows walls to move up and down based off of a condition

Controls:

  • WASD keys to move forward, backwards, left, and right
  • Move mouse to look around
  • Hold left click to grab objects
  • Release left click to drop objects
