A downloadable game

Velocity Rift is a time-warping FPS that focuses on always moving and shooting your enemies accurately. It is being developed as a student project and new features are to be added. The key challenge is the limited amount of ammo (orbs) that you have, only 3! These orbs return at different speeds depending on what you hit (slowest if you miss, fastest if you hit the weak spot of enemies) so make your shots count!


Here's what is currently playable:
- Tutorial level and a Level 1 with a simple boss fight
- Basic UI and Main Menu, with pausing
- Basic character movement with time dilation mechanics
- Simple enemy that attacks you when you go close enough
- Enemy drops for restoring health and gaining a small speed boost
- Health and ammo system
- Speedrun timer and best time saving

Here's what to expect in the coming weeks
- Expanded and refined player controls, improving the feel of the jump and addition of a double jump mechanic
- A new level
- New enemy designs and behaviour
- Tweaked combat to improve the "speedrun-ability" of the game
- A new first person model to replace the default UE4 hands
