Created in Unreal Engine. 

Shadow Dreams: The Last Thought Of Hope is the flagship title from Khosouf Studio. It is a first-person spell-casting game. The player represents 'the last thought of hope' in a person with a suicidal mind. The enemies and kingdoms represent the emotions and trauma that one may go through. 

There are 5 elemental abilities with light and heavy attacks. The game is inspired mainly by Doom 2016 and contains some parkour elements. 

This is where the majority of my time at Khosouf has been spent. This game is currently in production and will be released in Q1/Q2 2025. 

Due to the chaotic nature of the studio with only 3-4 employees working on the game at a time, I have naturally done work in many areas which included:

• Environment art / set dressing for all of the levels. 
• Creating one of the levels from beginning to end, including the level / puzzle design, block out, audio, lighting, effects, set dressing, and play testing. 
• Created basic cutscenes using the level sequencer. 
• Created basic blueprints for actors such as traps, collectibles, doors, and triggers. 
• Designed and created the 'trauma rooms' which are essentially mini challenges located throughout the game.
• Created and maintained numerous documents and presentations.
