Creating The Heavy Enemy BP



Creating The Boss Nun BP


Bug Fixes, Combat

Upon first attempt the line traces meant to damage enemies where firing constantly even when the torch was off and firing through walls subsequently killing most of the enemies spawned before the player got near them.

I fixed this by adding a do once node to the line of damage code within the Player Character BP and specifying that each hit object can only confirm a hit to activate damage if teh actor they hit was one of the three enemy BP's.


Bug Fixes, Interaction

Somewhere during development all interactions no longer worked and my solution to this was to add a second invisible cube to each interactable BP and make that invisible cube larger then the entire static mesh of the asset inside the BP.

Guest Lecture #1 - 21/09/2022 - Secret Mode

Guest - Joshua Garrity, Head Game Scout at Secret Mode Guest Bio Joshua started as a product Manager in the marketing department. Joshua was in charge of digital publishing for Fireshine. Attending public events like Gamescom not only allowed him to network his way into the position as Head Scout at Secret Mode but is also a method he uses to accomplish his job by seeing new indie projects in beta stages at these events. Takeaway #1 – How to Pitch my projects Scouts and Studio CEOs will be travelling often and walking around both Hotels and event centers, so  you  need to be able to pitch your project anywhere at any time. This means your presentation needs to be smooth, quick, and confident, when talking with scouts, CEO, or other representatives you need to answer their questions (without checking notes) and speak honestly about what your team has done and what it will cost for your studio team to do more. Takeaway #2 – What Do Game Scouts Get Up to Game Scouts in their day-...

Guest Lecture #4 - 19/10/2022 - 10:10 Games

  1st Guest Bio - Bart Kosciolek, Junior Animator @ 10:10 Games Jfjdiejdjd 2nd Guest Bio - Reece Hewitson, Junior Games Developer @ 10:10 Games skdjalskjdlkasjd Takeaway #1 - Determination As an applicant trying to get into the industry I will be rejected many times due not being the correct fit for studios I am applying for, be it not enough experience or not the correct style of work for how the studio does things. I need to not let this deter me.  Takeaway #2 - Networking The video games industry is still very young (in business terms/years) and still very small (in one sense), while a single title is a product of many peoples work all put together those people often split after projects have been finished and they will end up working on other projects at other studios and this results in "everyone knows everybody" where you can say a name in conversation with a new co-worker and they'll reply with "oh yeah I know (name) I've worked with them on this project. ...

  Guest - Peter Dimitrov, Environment Artist @ Rebellion Games Guest Bio Peter enlightened us and told us his day-to-day while he worked on the 1st DLC project for Sniper Elite 5, as a environment artist Peter worked with another level designer to develop and refine the flooded map level that the 2 of them had been assigned to.  Takeaway #1 - Working with limitations      Both Peter and his co-worker had to stick to a schedule where sections of the map needed to be                   done to a specific deadline, the white box version needed to be done within a certain time limit,                   changes could not be made once the art pass had started, the map needed to include certain features like      ditches and a spot for a supply train to run through. The map itself went under many changes before         ...
