Umaru World
A downloadable game for Windows
This is a two weeks prototype done in my freetime to improve my workflow with houdini and unreal engine.
A simple proof of concept building houdini to unreal landscape :
almost every asset start with lines or curves like a squeleton
then generating volumes with sweep (custom extrusion shape / square circle and ribbon output) taking advantaghe from straight UV generation.
intensive usage of the awesome labstools :
- edge damage
-sharpen
-random selection
-edge to curve
-findshortestpath
-voxelmesh
Using simple simulations with vellumbrush, fractured rigid bodies .

Install instructions
To play, just uncompress the archive then execute UMARU.exe
Controls :
A or gamepad X : hamster spawn when close to robot enemy
E or gamepad B : interact

SPACEBAR or gamepad A to jump/glide
For now gameplay mecanics are fun but I'm still prototyping further features.
You can interact with :
- purple plants with blue cloth
- small shelters that give you a hamster for each one gathered, that you can use to attack robots
- talk to local NPCs
- turn on/off lanterns
-loot food in jars around houses
at the moment you can stomp on robots head or very close to stun them
hope you will have fun, please leave me comments/critics/ideas so that could be improved.
