Path of Kami is a relaxing puzzle exploration game following the spirit of a Japanese wolf Kazeyo as he navigates the trials of the Mortal and Spirit World through puzzles. He is accompanied by Wisp companion who is there to guide him on his journey. Path of Kami contains elements of both traditional Japanese folktales (Momotaro, Issun-Boushi), as well as a more personal journey for the main character.
This was primarily done in Blueprint due to the team wanting to avoid C++.
- Implemented a save system to keep the world state consistent.
- Implemented core level scripting systems for puzzles.
- Implemented a companion AI to follow the player around and assist with puzzles.
- Implemented basic companion UI systems.
