Last Knight

Description

Last Knight is a unique genre mix that combines platforming, action-packed riding and ragdoll physics driven jousting! It is fast-paced action in a never ending randomly generated Unreal Engine powered fantasy world! The story mode put it's player in control of a squire on its way of becoming a knight. But before he can prove himself, events of epic proportions make him the last hope for the kingdom! On his heroic adventure he will have to fight the horned bucket heads and oversized hungry creatures. He will have to get through a wide range of dangerous environments as well as his own Knightmares. But beside the story there is much more. Various game modes let you adventure through always different never ending generated worlds filled with riches and dangers. On your journeys you will also find quests that will take each of the characters on different missions in the hunt for fame and glory as well as gold and chivalry. Gold can be spent on fancy power ups, while chivalry can unlock world bending mutators and different view modes like the intense first person view. Cutting-edge features like a fully dynamic randomized weather system and a collision system that can alter basically everything of the world geometry make this game even more over the top.

History

The development began almost 3 years ago, started as a project with the, at that time quite new, Unreal Development Kit. Jousting and challenging horse riding is usually something that is hard to find in games. The idea was to make a game that is build around that kind of gameplay and make it with cutting edge graphics but at the same time with arcade like gameplay. 3D Platformers like the first 2 Crash Bandicoot games as well as the first games in the "endless runner" genre with their randomly generated world were a big inspiration. The game is created by David Hagemann. The music is made by Edouard Brenneisen and the sounds are made by Jarno Sarkula. David is a game developer and freelance artist who already worked on several indie games, he has his roots with the Unreal Engine in the modding community of Unreal Tournament 3. His characters have won several prices in the Make Something Unreal Contest. More behind the scenes in a Interview here: http://truepcgaming.com/2013/06/13/last-knight-interview
