I'm a motion designer/animator and I've been tinkering with a small 2.5D Metroidvania in Unreal. The clip is a first prototype – I've made the assets and animations and put this little section together in Unreal myself.

I'm looking for another hobbyist who's comfortable with Unreal and Blueprints and would like to develop the game together. Someone who enjoys level/world building would be especially great. PaperZD experience is a big plus, but not necessary.

If this looks like something you'd enjoy working on, send me a message :)
