The Horror Mechanics Unreal Engine Asset is a game development tool that provides developers with a wide range of features and tools to create a truly terrifying horror game experience. This asset is designed specifically for the Unreal Engine, one of the most popular game engines used by developers around the world. With its advanced and intuitive design, the Horror Mechanics Asset allows for easy implementation of various horror game mechanics such as jump scares, eerie environments, and suspenseful gameplay.

Horror Mechanics is a base template that includes most common features found in first person horror games, such as first person arms/body, interactive objects, drawers, doors, interactive lights, puzzles, inventory system, examinable objects and keys, all integrated into a "generic checkpoint system" interface.

Requirements:

This template requires you to have some experience with blueprints, character retargeting and asset management, might not be recommended for beginners as it uses the most performance optimized workflow for some of its systems which ends up being not very "user friendly".
