Indie game developer and building worlds in UEFN /Unreal 5⚔️

@cryoshrimp Haha yeah, double jump is available through the Training Force Power Augment I've already got a few parkour mechanics that use double jumps and flips. Adds a lot more variety!

[Shadelogic @Dontiki33]

Back after a few weeks with no internet. I’ve been building the interior parkour for Force Academy’s temple—modular trial rooms, stepping stones, and moving ledges.

@ImmatureGamer Wow, crazy news! 👀 This is huge

[Shadelogic @Dontiki33]

@cryoshrimp Exactly! Drone bros have to look out for each other 😆🤝

[Shadelogic @Dontiki33]

After a long code refactor, I’m finally back to UI 😅

First test of a reusable card system for character selection, duel modes and more. The hierarchy is still a little messy

@cryoshrimp I still have a few activity hooks to finish, and my day job leaves me with less time to work on it. But for sure—I’m building a Discord for playtests, and I’ll let you know as soon as it’s ready! 🙌

[Shadelogic @Dontiki33]

New data-driven UMG cards working in-game!

Verse builds the opponent grid from the character catalog, then sends the selected opponent into the Ranked Arena.

The full holotable → selection → fight flow is finally coming together ⚔️

[Shadelogic @Dontiki33]

@cryoshrimp Good to know, I definitely would’ve struggled with that 😆 Even after working with Unreal and Unity, UMG still has its own logic that isn’t always obvious, that’s for sure!

[Fortnite Developers @FNCreate]

Every launch has something to teach you.

@Lionheart from Ghost Gaming shares how they read the signals, learned from misses, and found what really clicked with players.

@FNCreate @Lionheart Really nice talk 🔥

[Shadelogic @Dontiki33]

@cryoshrimp Yeah, agreed—naming everything is our only real weapon 😆 Mine starts clean, then slowly turns into chaos again.

[Shadelogic @Dontiki33]

@cryoshrimp Nice, thanks for sharing the setup! I see it already looks great with the drone too 😆

[CryoShrimp @cryoshrimp]

I didn't know I could make raycast attacks like this in UEFN! So happy.. lol
Made 3 rewards that triggers just by aiming: Aim Laser, Auto Bullets, and Charge Lance.
Honestly, a build where I never shoot and just aim is way too fun!!

spent so much time optimizing this and finally have full frames. the spatial profiler and performance tools are so helpful USE THEM.

Made a color picker widget that works for all input types. Would you use this? #UEFN #Verse

[Shadelogic @Dontiki33]

@cryoshrimp Kind of 😂 I’m actually sticking to my plan and trying not to add more—the plan itself is just taking way longer than it did in my head! But you’re right, the trap is real

[Shadelogic @Dontiki33]

Started working on the lightsaber forge room ⚔️

Built a new custom stone-and-tech forge station in Blender and brought it into UEFN. Still a WIP, but the room is finally starting to find its identity!

[Shadelogic @Dontiki33]

@cryoshrimp Thanks!! I was going for that Force-meets-tech style, so I’m glad it comes through 😄 The plugin is nothing fancy yet—just handy workflow tools like Fortnite scale ref, zero pivot exports, etc. I also love building this kind of stuff I can’t help myself ^^ More to come!

[Shadelogic @Dontiki33]

@cryoshrimp Thank you! I’ve been reworking this area for a while—really glad you like how it’s coming together 🙌

[Shadelogic @Dontiki33]

This Combat Pit refactor has taken a bit more time than expected, but it’s finally coming together!

The new logic is starting to work too—a Red vs Blue mini-activity where teams fight over a central objective and deliver it to the enemy base.

Still a WIP! ⚔️ #UEFN #instaMAT
