Mechanics

Small game, full stack.

SampleGame exercises the gameplay framework, input system, animation and Jolt physics — the same systems you'd use for a full title.

Momentum Movement

Acceleration-based horizontal movement with air control — tuned through the gameplay framework.

Jump & Dash

Responsive jump with coyote time, plus a directional dash on its own cooldown.

Grappling Hook

Fire a hook to anchor points and swing across gaps — physics-driven via Jolt.

Checkpoints

Death and respawn flow with a VFX sequence, handled by the game mode.
