En-Garde

A P2P multiplayer melee combat game where players can engage in intense, stressful duels where one miss swing can determine life or death!

The game features directional swinging and corresponding directional blocks, where both players must observe each other and predict/react to each other.

=======

HOW TO PLAY:

1) Have Steam opened in the background and be logged in.

2) (Temporary Requirement for Dev Build) All players must be connected to the same Download Centre on Steam. - this can be changed by going to Steam->Settings->Downloads and changed in this menu.

Note: I am currently waiting for verification on SteamWorks - hence the version available here is the Development Version (which uses the Steam Development App ID - so you may find additional lobbies here and there).

This is a game I made on my on Unreal Engine 5 and is my first attempt at making a multiplayer game. 

This is a project where I wanted to take elements of melee combat that I like in other games: Mount & Blade, JKA Movie Battles II - in particular. Though I did take inspiration from these games I wanted to experiment with alternate control schemes and not simply remakes of the schema found in its inspirations.

The animations and the arena map were bought on the UE Marketplace.
