Welcome to another world, that is, a cave in another world. You are the Little Dude, on his way to a target only he knows about. We don't speak of the target. Oh, and there's a treasure somewhere.

Club UG is a puzzle platformer that uses logic gates. There is a small level and a big level. If you get stuck, move further away from grabbable things and try again. Saving is not implemented, so try not to break the game too much.

Controls:


WASD/Left Stick - Move

Shift/Left Bumper - Sprint

Space/Gamepad (A) - Jump, sprinting makes longer jumps.

E/ Gamepad (X) - Use, stand before a switch and press this to activate it.

Left mouse button/Right Trigger - Pick up item, put the cursor over an item and then drag. The first puzzle will make sure you know how to pick up items.

Made in Unreal Engine 4. Software used: Unreal Engine 4, Voxel Plugin for UE4, Blender, TreeIt (Tree generator), Affinity Photo, Substance Painter, Quixel Mixer (for ground textures), Amazon Polly (Narrator voice).

Known bugs:

~~Music doesn't loop~~ Fixed, because it was bugging me.

The grabbable objects are a bit hard to grab under certain circumstances - just move a bit away from the object and try again.

That was a funny graphical game. Well done. I went for the treasure, as I am sure most did...

I didn't feel like looking up logic gates online. Maybe a pic next to them to explain them? Really cool though. Fun and engaging.

This was really cool! Love the Stanley Parable style :-). Has a good level of charm. Good job!

Getting some "The Stanley parable" vibes from this which is nice. I like the music it feels like it fits well for the style of this game. I think it would've benefited with a little less floaty movement, it was hard to get on the green moving platforms since they moved so fast. Overall good job!

An interesting and well made little game. I rally had fun playing it and I liked the story. And it do look amazing. Well done.

It's fun when I heard the voice over I felt something was wrong with it. Okay it sounds pretty good, but the words used was kinda wrong for the voice. And then I can read that you used some kinda text to speech, and for that, it's actually sounds really good.

Pretty cool game for a jam. I wanted treasure... but treasure was the friends we made along the way... or the first energy core thingy, which I took with me on an adventure, since the first door doesn't close instantly and you can take that first core :P

The narration is great, reminds me a lot of the stanley parable. Almost lost it at the Sorting Hat of Hogwash :laughing:. The puzzles were fun but I'm pretty sure I cheesed it a bit.

Nice game! But I could not figure out how to solve the puzzle with the throwing box.(
Good luck!

@katamary You can just pick up the box and run through wall, it will break anyway.

Cool game. Like the voice acting and how the narrator nags. xD

The nod to the Stanley Parable at the start was 👌

Great job and dialoges. I was collecting as many coins as possible^^
Kripakov2 May 2021, 17:21
Nice! Cool graphics and textures! The coin taking and the effects in general are very cool! And the music is pretty atmospheric! Great job! Notable bugs - the camera easily passes through walls, but these are trifles =)

I loved the music, the concept and the character. In addition, the game's progression looks incredible - but unfortunately, on my pc I had a drop in fps, and the character's movement sometimes actually becomes a teleport to me - makes it impossible to reach the platforms.

I couldn't play 'till the end, but I really liked what I could. Especially, the soundtrack and chracter model.Great work!

I don't know if my rig might be out of date or what but it kept freezing on me and not responding either almost immediately during the intro dialogue or after I enter the caves :( not sure what I'm doing wrong but I really enjoyed the graphics and the dialogue set a really good tone for the game, kinda reminded me of a future version of National Geographic ;p

@conduit This game wasn't optimized much, and I suspect that Voxel Plugin, especially its latest version, is causing the frame drops for people. I might come back to the game in the future and fix the performance, but now I have a lot on my plate.
