PERSONAL PROJECTS

RTS Game 2020 – present

The focus of this project is to enhance my skills at creating AI by making a game in a genre that is based upon AI.

This game currently has most of the features that the majority of RTS games contain as: Base building, Controlling AI, and AI battling other AI.

The current objective I am working towards is resource management and ways to get certain types of resources to build units/buildings.

The aim of this game is to better my understanding of the unreal engine.

Currently the game has guard AI that chase the player when you get in its line of sight.

The current objective I am working towards is finishing the enemy, then getting Player mechanics completed.
