GAME ENGINE |
Amnesia: The Bunker is a first-person survival horror video game developed on the HPL Engine 3.5. In the game, the user explores the catacombs of a World War I bunker, playing as French soldier Henri Clément. The complexity and atmosphere of the game made it unique in its kind. It is important to note that this is one of the few games in its genre with a semi-open world and randomly changing elements, which ensures high repeatability of the passage.
The game takes place during the First World War. The player takes on the role of a French soldier, Henri Clement, who is trying to solve the mysteries of the bunker and at the same time find a way out of it. At the same time, the hero is equipped with a revolver and a noisy dynamo flashlight, which adds complexity and dynamics to the gameplay.
Amnesia: The Bunker was announced on December 1, 2022, and was originally scheduled for release in March 2023. However, the release date was pushed back several times, and finally the game was released on June 6, 2023.
During development, the developers released several gameplay trailers showing various game mechanics - interacting with a revolver, exploding a powder barrel with a flare, different ways to open doors, and fighting bunker rats with a gas grenade.
Game engine HPL Engine 3.5
HPL Engine 3.5 is an updated version of Frictional Games' popular game engine used in the Amnesia series of games. This engine has been specially optimized to create the horror atmosphere that is the hallmark of the games in the series.
In Amnesia: The Bunker, HPL Engine 3.5 allows for a semi-open world with randomly changing elements, which creates a unique environment for each new playthrough. This contributes to greater replayability and makes each game session unique.
Improvements in the HPL Engine 3.5 also allowed the game's creators to work more flexibly on scenario moments. Although the game contains little to no scenario events, the engine supports realistic physics models and interaction systems, allowing the player to interact with many objects in the game world.
One such example of interaction is the use of a gas grenade against bunker rats, demonstrated in one of the videos. Other examples of interaction are the use of a revolver and a dynamo flashlight, as well as various ways to open doors, which were demonstrated in previously released trailers.
Also HPL Engine 3.5 contributes to the creation of realistic and frightening lighting, which is a key element in creating an atmosphere of fear in games of this genre. This is enhanced by the use of a dynamo lantern, which is one of the hero's main tools in the game.
Overall, the HPL Engine 3.5 demonstrates its power and flexibility in Amnesia: The Bunker, providing deep and realistic interaction with the game world, a complex lighting system, and highly repeatable gameplay.
Amnesia: The Bunker continues the tradition of the Amnesia series, offering players a tense and frightening storyline, interesting game mechanics and unique replay options. It is a prime example of what the HPL Engine 3.5 game engine is capable of, and new projects based on this engine are eagerly awaited.
