A Town Called Solitude: in Undead Peril!

CONTROLLERS REQUIRED FOR MULTIPLAYER!

Engage in multiplayer beat-em-up action as you fight your way through the undead horde that's taken over this once-quiet western town!

Story!

The vile sheriff has been brought back from beyond the grave, commanding an army of undead skeletons to terrorise the town of Solitude. He's got his own story, but that's perhaps for another day...

You (and your posse!) have seen a "Help Wanted" poster in the local tavern and decided to journey to the remote town of Solitude.

Who's in the posse? Well...

Characters!

Edgar - Ranger/Medic

Shoot-em-all with syringes!

Edgar is the medic of the crew. His syringes are filled with a mysterious liquid that causes healing when injected into flesh. It would be an issue if the enemies had some meat on their bones, but they don't! 
Regrettably, he's French... Deer oh deer...

Edgar's standard attack features a syringe launched from a crossbow for same-day delivery! The charge attack makes you shoot more of them out!

Matilda - Tank

Wreck-em-all with furious fists and shocking stomps!

Matilda is the tank of the crew. Despite being a cow, she's quite the workhorse, and bulky to boot! Rush into combat to smash their bones to pieces with a standard punching attack, and a charged stomp attack that cracks the ground and sends enemies flying!
She's not one to take nonsense, so watch your tone.

Crater - Blaster

Blast-em-all with EXPLOSIVES!

Crater is the crowd-controller of the group. They love the smell of smoke which regrettably affects their lungs... at least it's good for their career!

Crater slowly throws dynamite at the cursor location as the standard attack, and prepares the lasso as part of the charged attack. The lasso groups all the enemies caught inside it into the middle and stuns them for a few seconds. Use this to your advantage!
Responsible for "Bringing the Boom to you!"

This project was created as part of our AIE Second Year Production. As a student game, this game is unlikely to be receiving any major updates.

It's also made with Unreal Engine 5, so it might not run particularly well on lower end devices.
