Project Sunstroke: UE5 Survival City Builder
Project Type
University Project
Project Type
Technical Design
Engine
Unreal 5
TimeLine
7/8 Weeks - Part Time
Completion Date
February 2026
For this project I was given a brief to prototype and create a city builder in Unreal focusing on the technical design.
Following this I researched several city builders, landing on a survival city builder game where limited resources and the environment were a constant pressure on the player.
A focus for this projects design was a onboarding story/ tutorial.
An interesting aspect of this development cycle was my pivot in direction from a cosy city builder to a survival focused city builder. This occurred at week 3 of 8, but through scope management and time planning I was still able to complete the revised vision for the game on time.
