Slay cubes that want to invade your personal space by harnessing the power of the sun with a crystal ball. I can't tell you what is at the end of the level or why the cubes are loaded with blood.
Game mode: Time attack.
Unconventional weapon: Crystal ball magnifying lens + the sun
Objects obscure the sun from the magnifying lens
AI follows to last seen position and you can hide from it.
Heat up an unruly cube with the sun to vaporize it.
Cubes cool down if given the chance, so keep them hot.
The night cycle has no adequate lighting to keep your weapon functional.
Controls
-------------
WASD, mouse
R to restart the level
Postmortem:
As much as I want to put in: sounds, vaporization and spawn particle effects, burn marks, a fleshed out level, high score, menus and textures etc, I simply ran out of time! I had a blast and can only get better since this is my first non-piddly use of UE4, not to mention my first LD and first game ever. I highly recommend UE4. Love!
