Stack Obot

Stack Obot is a solo project that marks my first complete game as an independent developer, created under the guidance of my instructors. Using pre-existing maps and assets, I assembled and expanded the project in Unreal Engine by designing original gameplay mechanics and interactive Blueprint systems to create a cohesive puzzle-platforming experience.

‣Design:
⇢Conceptualized and assembled the game structure using existing assets while creating unique gameplay mechanics to give the project its own identity.
⇢Designed a series of puzzle-based levels where the player must shoot, stack, and activate environmental elements to progress.
⇢Created level sequences featuring BP_MovingPlatforms, timed challenges, and interactive doors that reinforce progression and exploration.
⇢Designed the final level scenario where the player uses an BP_Elevator to descend into a closing chamber, completing the game with a BPI_Widget “Level Complete” message for player feedback.
⇢Focused on creating visual clarity and consistent player flow across multiple connected puzzle rooms.

‣Programming:
⇢Developed the BP_ShootBananas mechanic, allowing the player character to fire banana projectiles from its core.
⇢Programmed projectile rotation, impulse, and collision logic so that bananas can interact dynamically with objects in the environment.
⇢Implemented gameplay logic where banana projectiles make certain objects disappear, while hitting the correct target activates a BP_Platform that lights up.
⇢Designed a block-stacking system where the player places nearby blocks onto the activated platform, triggering the BP_Door to open and advance to the next level.
⇢Integrated a BP_Elevator Blueprint with smooth movement transitions to transport the player to the final area.
⇢Programmed end-game UI elements using a BPI_Widget, providing visual confirmation of level completion.
⇢Optimized all Blueprint interactions for stable performance and clear gameplay feedback loops.
