Experience a meticulously rendered world from a micro view point!
Inspired by the excitement of the announcement by Unreal Engine 5, we created this game.
'Nanite' handles unlimited polygons, 'Lumen', which allows for perfectly dynamic lighting, and the latest visual effect tool, 'Niagara'.
Even one would have been sensational, but it's a major event to have all of them come out at almost the same time.
Tech Demo Highlights
- Super close-up presentation
- Dynamic sunlight changes
- Progressive visual effects
- -Film-quality assets can be used with almost no modification
The 3 colors of light represent Nanite, Lumen, and Niagara.
This game features next-generation representations of these new functions.
We live in an interesting time, a turning point of technology, enjoy it with us!
