Making Our First Game | Icebound Devlog #2

Hello! My wife and I are making our first Indie game in Unreal Engine. An arctic setting survival strategy game with some Lovecraftian and Dieselpunk elements sprinkled in for flavor. In this video we talk about some of the progress we've made. It's all in engine. No cinematic trickery, just assets and lighting out of Unreal. 👉 Wishlist Icebound on Steam!
