Created solo for Beginner’s Circle Jam #3 over the course of a week using C++ in Unreal Engine. The theme was A Different Planet. I handled all tasks on this project.
I wrote a blog post about my experience optimizing this game.
First Rock from the Sun is a platformer about living on Mercury, avoiding solar flares, and gathering supplies to make tacos from neighbors. Jump and wall-jump to reach your friend’s house. Hide behind shields to avoid the sun damaging your vehicle.
Texture are from textures.com and Unreal Starter Content. Sounds from freesound.org. Everything else was created by me.
