UE5 multi platform showcase. With the advent of NexGen games, we are putting Unreal Engine 5 by Epic Games to the test on mobile using their new FREE Lyra Starter Game template. With multi-platform multiplayer features and the ability to mod the living daylights out of the core setup, this is a great place to start for anyone interested in game development using the NexGen game development platform.
Due to the nature of the project, this release is completely FREE . We will also be sharing our experience along the way via YouTube tutorials and on our Discord channel focused on UE5 to mobile workflows. In the future we will experiment with services like Epic Online Services, Steam, AdMob and Google Play Game Services, so achievements and such can be used for better in game experiences.
We want to showcase the features that can be performance optimized for mobile, like Nanite, Lumen, MetaSound and World Composition to name but a few. Using the new starter kit as part of a journey in to mobile cross platform development.
Lyra:Mobile will include all types of game types, from platform, story modes, to open world multiplayer. We want to push the mobile boundaries of the future, and allow PC, console and mobile all in the same games with no compromise. Thanks to Epic laying the foundation and providing us the resources to make this possible, we want to share with everyone who wishes to create and play.
This is an Alpha release, so performance and platform testing the life out of it. Bugs and glitches will be present. We are actively working on this project independently and along with Epic as they update and release new features, so updates will be very frequent.
Hope you enjoy the journey with us, and look forward to your feedback for bugs and features. More to follow soon :)
Enjoy....
