Super Mage Arena

Here's mine and K-Bups submission! We started out trying to make a hack and slash, but ended up with a flame-throwing mage smurf with rainbow eyes. It just kind of naturally progressed to that point, I promise. I mostly worked on art, shaders, and a little bit of character programming, while K-Bups made a combo system, damage system, and made the AI for the enemies.
We ran short on time sadly, so there is no win state, and the losing state forces you do restart the game. The larger enemies were also meant to be much more threatening, but alas, we could not fix them in time. We'll likely upload a post-compo version to fix those issues. Overall, we both learned a ton, got some practice in Unreal, and had a great time doing it!
