Diskland is a simple arcade flying game (my first ever). The goal is to collect coins, avoid obstacles and unlock stuff with the help of cool powerups.

Hello friends!

DISKLAND is my first attempt at creating a videogame.

My plan was to make it as simple as posible to increase the chances of actually finishing it.

I'm using Unreal Engine 4 and all of the coding is done in blueprints. (I'm actually not a programmer... yet)

The idea is to have a rotating "world" shaped as a cylinder and divided into 2 sections.
Each section can be swapped off camera to make an illusion of an infinite flight through the changing enviornment.

like this:

The player takes control of a fragile aeroplane and moves it (left and right) to avoid obstacles.

What you don't see is that the plane stays perfectly still and the whole world is moving instead.

The main goal of the game is to collect, collect some more... and then collect the rest.

To finish every stage, you need to grab a couple of gold coins,

and there's a lot of stuff to unlock on the way, and I mean A LOT!
