Children of the Phoenix

Children of the Phoenix is an unreleased game project that I worked on at my second studio, Pigs will Fly, until the studio was sadly closed down and the project never saw the light of day.

The game was going to be a sci-fi third person shooter in a grand universe with inspirations from games like Returnal and Mass Effect, the setting of the game was to be an adaption/continuation of a sci-fi book series with the same name.

​

The project was in the early phases of development with lots of prototyping and trying out various ideas, which was a very fun experience that I learned a lot from! 

Unfortunately, I am not allowed/able to show off anything publicly from my time here but I still think this was a useful experience for me as a game developer where I got to work more directly on gameplay systems and design.

​

We used Unreal Engine 5 with Angelscript for our scripting which was a new tool for me to learn, and we used the Gameplay Ability System (GAS) for most of our gameplay systems.
