Theme: Two-button controls
Winterland is a short game where you control a polar bear cub and her mom through a dangerous ravine. It just so happens that these particular polar bears have rockets on their backs! Have both bears dodge obstacles by moving left and right (A/D and J/K for the cub and mom respectively).
Play it one player (two controls each bear.. keep them together for easier play) or play with a friend! It was designed for one player to control both bears.
Enjoy!
Running the game:
Unzip and run StartGame.bat.
If you are Windows and it complains about missing prerequisites, run the UE4PrereqSetup_x86.exe file. This installs DirectX prerequisites.
Behind-the-scenes:
Art, music, programming done by http://twitter.com/zknet. Story, idea and main menu UI done by my wife. This was my first go at completing something in Unreal Engine, so it was a great learning experience. Per the usual, we didn't do nearly as much as we would've liked, but that's the nature of these things.
I will be attempting to publish a Linux version as well.
