'DustCutter' is a 2D fighting game created in Unreal Engine 5 as my senior thesis at Montserrat College of Art. It was my first time making a game in that engine and the first time I've made a game at this scale period. On top with making the game, I created the character designs, posters, and refurbished an old arcade controller for the senior exhibition "Feast Your Eyes!"
