Rancang Bangun Game First Person Shooter (FPS) Zombie Wave Survival Berbasis Desktop Menggunakan Unreal Engine 5

Abstract

The development of games today demands higher programming skills. One type of game that is quite popular is the First Person Shooter (FPS) genre, where players see the game world from a first-person perspective. This research aims to improve programming skills by designing and developing a game called Zombie Wave Survival in the First Person Shooter (FPS) genre, the game was built and developed using Unreal Engine 5 software. The method used in this research is the Multimedia Development Life Cycle (MDLC), a method suitable for designing and developing media applications involving images, sound, video, animation, and other elements. This method involves six stages, namely conceptualization, design, material collecting, assembly, testing, and distribution. For data collection, observation and information gathering through the internet and literature studies that support the making of 3D games are carried out. The results showed that the designed game can help players in developing psychological training, quick thinking, reaction, and vision speed. In addition, it becomes a means of entertainment for its users.
