• Story: Martin is a man living alone in his property deep in the forest. One night, he hears a strange noise and goes to investigate. He sees a series of weird multicolored lights. What are they? Is it monsters? Aliens? Are they good or bad? He must find out where they come from.

• Location/Setting: The property of Martin. It’s a forest area with a lot of trees but also a lot of plain grassy areas. There are hills, a river, and a cave at the end. It’ll be nighttime with stars in the sky.

• Mission Objective: Solve the light puzzles to uncover the source.

• Gameplay Mechanics: Jumping, Running

• Special Mechanics: Interact with lights and objects

• About: This was my third attempt to make a game in Unreal, and the first that I feel is good enough to include here. Although this was for a level design class, I used this as an oppurtunity to tinker with Blueprints and figure out how to do some pretty cool stuff.

  • There were some flaws with level design, that resulted in cheap deaths, so I went back to the game in February 2016 and polished those areas, removed some unnecessary voice acting, and added a title screen.

  • Like all the work I made in Unreal in the Fall 2015 semester, I made the music myself in Pro Tools. Even though the game takes five minutes to win, and is very simple, I included this game on my website because it shows off some cool music I made, and shows what I am capable of doing in Unreal. I made this game in about a week with only a month's worth of Unreal and Blueprint experience.

  • The level itself is called "Field of Visions" but the game Midnight is named after the Coldplay song

• HOW TO PLAY: Use Arrow Keys or WASD to move around. Space bar to jump. Use the mouse to move the camera. Depending on what lights you touch... different things will happen...

  • YELLOW LIGHTS - Normal lights, don't do anything

  • GREEN LIGHTS - These are good lights. Step into all of them to win the game.

  • RED LIGHTS - These are very harmful, being in them for more than 3 seconds will kill the player.

  • BLUE LIGHTS - These completely heal the player of any burns from red lights.

  • PURPLE LIGHTS - Mysterious... the first one is unskippable, so you will know sooner or later...

  • WHITE LIGHT - Visit the aliens...

  • Eventually the red and purple lights start to move around, so maneuvering around the field starts to become trickier.
