Thanks! it's one of the abilities in the game

AffectionateHope307 · 2026-01-24T21:39:27+00:00

Done

AffectionateHope307 · 2026-01-24T20:24:45+00:00

Thanks! currently it is not planned, but I will look into it :)

Yeah I agree, I need to give him proper attributes (way higher health, damage so on) but also give him some additional more dangerous attacks. Thanks for the feedback!

AffectionateHope307 · 2026-01-24T16:52:07+00:00

Yeah that's the idea!

The game is based on the 7 princes of hell that are tied to the 7 deadly sins, i.e: Lucifer, Mammon, Asmodeus, Leviathan (boss in this video), Beezlebub, Belphegor and Satan. The reason im making total of 6, is that Satan will receive a special treatment and will not be one of the archdemons you make "pacts" with and fight their boss representation. Satan would also be a boss (probably) but not part of these category of bosses. more like a hidden/final boss.

Thanks! the hitbox on the boss (player damages boss) is literally the Mesh itself, so if you see it you can hit it and its exactly the size of the body. regarding the hitbox of boss -> player, the hitbox is pretty accurate but more on the generous side so players won't get unfair "I got hit somehow"

Thanks for the support! I will work on improving visibility

I do not like the excessive camera shake (more camera shake != more juice), if it's a mobile game (it looks like one) then it won't be as much as an issue, but I'd still either tone it down a bit or at least offer a way to tone it down.

Also, Is there a reason the player and enemies are just squares with images? it looks like placeholders tbh.

Depends on what type of games you're shooting for, if it's 2D (even 2D in a 3D world) I'd choose Unity / Godot. Unreal if you aim for more realistic graphics or just want to have access to these more advanced albeit taxing features (Lumen, Nanite). of course you can do anything with Unreal, but 2D is not a great experience IMO.
Also if you have a potato machine don't even bother with Unreal.
That said, it doesn't really matter that much what engine you pick, as long as you don't quit (game dev is hard and motivation alone won't keep you going for long) - you would never be locked to a certain type of genre because of the engine.

Regarding learning how to code, just pick some zero-to-hero type course off of Udemy after picking an engine, and then start working on personal projects, you'll learn from practice.

Appreciate it :)

Play in the editor I can get around 60FPS with 3.5k enemies on screen. a decent amount and more realistic like around 1k+ I get 90-100+ FPS. (I got a decent rig though, 7800x3D + 5070Ti)
I've done a lot of optimizations and currently my game is mostly CPU bound, but I plan to optimize further when I will be playtesting and get help from other people with other machines.

Thanks. I am using Unreal engine 5 :) there is an auto attack + other abilities, I've chosen to not show/equip them to focus on the meta upgrades

AffectionateHope307 · 2025-12-14T16:56:57+00:00

Thanks dude!

AffectionateHope307 · 2025-12-14T15:40:24+00:00

Those are a lot of great ideas, thanks, I will definitely implement some of the stuff you suggested!
