Reach Floor 13 is a short, 3D side-scroller puzzle game where players must escape a mysterious loop by reaching level 13.

Each reset introduces random anomalies, challenging players to observe carefully and rely on their memory to spot changes.

Making the right decision will send you to the next floor.

This project was an end-to-end development effort by me. While most assets were reused from my ongoing WIP platformer, the gameplay is entirely unique.

Gameplay Programming: Designed and implemented a gameplay loop in Unreal Engine 4 using Blueprints, featuring a system that introduces random anomalies with each loop reset.

Game Design: Created and planned a variety of anomalies to ensure fresh challenges with every loop.

UI/UX Design: Built functional UI elements, including a main menu, pause menu, and other navigation components, to enhance the player's experience.

Sound Design: Did the sound design for character animations, environmental ambiance, and anomalies to immerse players in the game world.

Marketing Materials: Produced promotional assets such as thumbnails, icons, and a trailer to showcase the game effectively.

Developed the game in roughly a month for Halloween in October, reusing many assets from my platformer game.

Began by creating a straight path lined with shelves and setting up default assets like boxes and ladders for the initial floor.

Ideated different anomalies, such as scaling up a box, changing visuals, or making objects invisible.

Programmed a system using Blueprints to assign anomalies randomly to floors.

Designed a functional UI for navigating through various widgets.

Worked on sound design to enhance the atmosphere and gameplay experience.

Published the game.

Engaged in marketing efforts to promote it.
