If you're a fan of video game tech demos, you're going to love this. Phospher Game Studios is currently working on an Unreal Engine 4 action game called Project Awakened.
The game puts a heavy emphasis on character customization, and to show off some of the ways they'll be making this happen, they've released an awesome new tech demo. The demo shows off the myriad of ways you'll be able to tweak your character's look, including how different augmentations and equipment affect the player.
According to the developers, the game is a "genre-defying game that lets you answer the question: 'Who do you want to be?' For the first time in a modern AAA action game, you will have the opportunity to completely define your dream videogame character, from abilities to aesthetics, all while playing in an action-packed world that responds to your personal playstyle."
The game utilizes a "modular power and skill system" that allows players to select and combine a huge number of different powers and abilities. In addition, the game allows players to customize just about every aspect of their character's character's appearance.
"While Project Awakened allows for players to make typical videogame heroes such as Ninjas, Snipers, or Urban Warriors, what makes Project Awakened truly unique is the potential to craft gameplay experiences and challenges that have never existed before. An invisible hero who can charm enemies to fight for her. A non-violent hero with super speed and agility racing past enemies to the goal. A man who spontaneously combusts at will and touches everyone to incinerate them. The possibilities are endless, and allow players to craft a gameplay challenge unlike anything anyone has ever seen before. The only limit is the player’s imagination."
Phospher Games is currently self funding the title through Kickstarter. You can learn more and contribute to the project here.
