Twisted - Core Game Contest
Back in 2021 I participated in Core Game Creator Challenge and won 1st prize. All assets came with Core Engine, I was only responsible for level design and scripting. The game itself is kind of a clone of Knight Lore, you have to traverse a dungeon, collect items and bring them to The Cauldron in certain order. It is not a direct clone ofc, I had to make some adjustments for third person view and to keep the scope manageable. Its unreasonably hard for a platformer, but to my defense I had only month to make it and I never seen Core or Lua before that. %) Handling client-server problems and debugging them was especially hard. Had to scrap few cool things :(

Starting room. Health is low in order to teach player how pickups work.
The Cauldron room. No Melkhior, or any other NPC's :(
Jam theme was 'Twisted', this was the first thing I've worked on :)
Some WIPs down here.
First iteration of the Cauldron.
Experimented with making items for pickups. Each of these models is comprised of several meshes, by the end of it, editing was hard because of lag :(
This was a chore. There is no way to deform meshes, So I had to make a section and then manually rotate it while watching for gaps between sections.
Almost finished cauldron room
Sewer section. This screenshot doesn't do it justice, but I was especially proud of this area, it featured some M.C. Escher style architecture, vertical swimming, and moving platform with skulls :)
Making 'starting experience' :)
One of the 'puzzle' room, although not really a puzzle.
