The special connection that can be created between the player and the protagonist is one of the highlights of this game. Basic actions like blowing a candle, have been defined by the testers as something 'intimate'. This idea could be expanded one day to more complex games! What if our protagonist is sad, or needs to kiss someone they love?

Much care has been put into the basic action of moving the first-person camera on screen. Usually, most of the first-person games, do not give feedback related to the basic movement of the camera. With this, the basic feeling of looking up-down or left-right was a main aspect of the development that I did not want to ignore.

The same philosophy of the feeling of looking around was also applied to the most basic action of jumping. One of the main aspects of the development I've learned during my master was related to giving satisfaction to the player in basically everything. Having a full 3 stages animation for the jump, fall, and landing was tricky, hard, but not impossible. And the feedback received from the testers was exactly what I was aiming for.

As for every animation, my objective was to give the correct feedback to the player as consistently as possible. Being hit by something was the same. With lots of recordings and blueprint magic, I made a set of dynamic animations that adapts to the directionality of the hit. Was it from behind? From the left side? From an angle of 256°? A unique blended animation will be used for that!

This small game takes inspiration from those games that used to feature a 'Status bar face' such as Wolfenstein or Doom. The Layout of this game will feature a first-person camera with also a UI window that will constantly show the character.

Similarly to Pilots - Tiga Winner, also in this game, I had to act, and for the first time in my development history, I was using my face! I have always been a huge fan of these types of technologies. Learning how to use these new development tools was interesting, hard, but also funny!
