Time Travel and Cultists
Split Aeon is a first person shooter where a gun wielding theatre magician sits inside of a 1920’s theatre, equipped with a special pocket watch allowing the player to change between the Prime Past of the theatre, everything is functional, clean, and tidy, and the fallen future where its abandoned charred ruins remain.
The player will have the ability to take advantage of their newfound power to get past blocked off areas, access special switches, and utilise it to fight or evade enemies in both present and past.
What I Worked On
As the Lead Programmer, I worked on various different systems including the Time Warp system, Game Management, UI and the Checkpoint system. I also managed Version Control.
Travel through time by using your watch. This works by shifting the player between two similar, but different copies of the level. The previous "time zone" gets paused until you return to that time.
​
When you time travel, a particle effect (named a "Silhouette") will temporarily appear where enemies are in the other time zone.
