Death Line — Animation Based Gameplay System
Overview
Death Line is an Unreal Engine 5 extraction shooter built with C++, featuring modular gameplay systems powered by GAS. The project focuses on animation-driven combat and traversal, utilizing Motion Warping for mechanics such as vaulting, climbing, jumping. Enemy AI behaviors, including stagger, dodge and hit reactions, were implemented through ability-based architectures for scalability and consistency. Additional systems include healing, quick-death mechanics, and a multiplayer-ready barter system. The development emphasizes clean architecture, responsiveness, and extensible gameplay design.

How It Was Built
