I recently spent a couple of days working on a 'Movement System' research project in Unreal Engine 5.3 and it's been an absolute blast!

 

This is my first time focusing on player movement within the UE blueprint system and I have already learned so much and I'm not even done!

 

I've used Titanfall 2 and Doom Eternal as heavy inspirations for this movement system, with the goal of making the player feel like a Space Marine from Warhammer 40k (hopefully this will spiral into a future project!) and I think I'm getting there!

​

The features I've implemented so far are the following:

- Wall Running

- Vertical Wall Running

- Wall Climbing

- Double Jump

- Dash

- Ledge Grab/Ledge Climb

- Mantle

- Quick Mantle

​

Overall, I think this project was successful! I learned so much about using the Unreal Engine Blueprint system and how to effectively create a fun and interesting movement system.

​

This project may work as a precursor to a future project but only time will tell!
