This game project is a Sci-Fi, Space Adventure with 6 degrees of freedom movement. You as the player will be a space-mercenary who is sent by a private investor to investigate and secure an area of interest. It is reminiscent of a game called Descent developed by Interplay Entertainment, Parallax Software and Volition. Since there is a lack of games with this kind of mechanics, I have decide to build one myself with a third-person to first-person view toggle. All concepts and design of these games are subject to change depending on my capabilities as a developer as well as what materials and assets are available to me.
I bought some more assets from the Epic Games asset store to improve the space environment. And I do say it looks much better now. Next will be level designing which I think will take up most of my time.
Assets used :
Realistic Rocks Vol. 1 - CGMontreal
Asteroids from Photogrammetry - Inverse

Sci-Fi Planets - Ebal Studios

I was have some problems implementing full '6 degrees of freedom' due to lack in my programming skills. But I finally figured it out and now I could move the character in all directions ( Pitch, Yaw, Roll, Up, Down, Left, Right, Forward and Back ).
In this video, I am testing the enemy AI and line of sight. I also added in some FXs as well as improve the looks of this enemy.

At this current state, I have a flight simulation type of game with shooter mechanics. This prototype game play reminds me of a game called 'Tower of Guns' released in 2014. As of now, I will turn this game into a "Bullet Hell" with my own take on the genre.

This is a game that I am working on, created in Epic Games' Unreal Engine 4. It was first meant to have full '6 degrees of freedom', but in the end I just lacked in my programming skills. At the moment it is a flight simulation type of game.
