Hello,
I am the LanGamer & Dev, a new Unreal guy that wants to make video games as a hobby.
My main goal is to bring enjoyable games that can be played on lan without internet and with dedicated server support and on all OS (for now, Windows for the demo, other platforms soon), I am working on Unreal Engine since the start of the version 4.26 and now 5.0.3 for most of my projects.
This one was made in the near end of 2020 with the goal to bring something new to a custom lan party we organize with some friends, the main catch is that we don’t have Internet and it’s not really an option to play together on online servers, so we use old games that can be played in LAN (COD4, Quake, UT, BF2…), we needed something new so I wanted to jump on the path of making a game to solve this particular problem.
This game is made on UE5.0.3, with the FPS Multiplayer Template as a base to get the characters and weapons mechanic ready and to gain some times and learn Unreal better (UE is just a hobby and not my main work)
Here is a little gameplay video (and my youtube channel) :
You have a good list of weapons to play with, you can customize your weapons ingame or at the menu, all weapons are unlocked even in the demo, a working minimap, good looking weapons and animations that I bought over on the Unreal Marketplace and made them work together to be as fluid as possible, you can climb, slide, run, double sprint to get some more momentum.
This is a game to play for fun when you want to hop into a match with some friends and / or against bots too. (Those are the originals AI of the template, those are unmodified by me).
And more projects are on their way 😉
Take care, and thanks for watching and maybe playing 🙂
The Lan Gamer
