While learning and working with Unreal, we constantly pushed the limits of what we thought was possible. The engine allowed us to easily convert ideas into real-time game concepts. A general curiosity motivated us to keep messing around in Unreal. Next to that, we learned a lot as well by making our own prototypes. Technical Artist Gaetan Thibaut: First of all, Unreal Engine was well taught to us at Digital Arts and Entertainment in Kortrijk, the school the three developers went to a few years ago. How did the team learn to use UE4 when starting the development process? They took some time to discuss how they got a better grasp of Unreal Engine throughout the process, share the inspiration behind the project, and elaborate on the landscaping tools that allowed them to build their environments. The ragtag Get Up Games crew hit some rough waters along the way and had to iterate on their project multiple times. To give themselves a better shot at victory, players navigate sea and land as they seek out resources, weapons, and upgrades for their vessels. Whether playing solo or with a crew of a variety of sizes in different types of ships, you’ll be able to respawn and keep fighting as long as your ship isn’t destroyed. In Blazing Sails, players will team up with other players to sink other ships on their quest to be the last pirate crew standing. Thus, the idea for Blazing Sails was born. After a lot of iterating with Unreal, the pair stumbled upon a unique blend that they thought would be compelling: pirates and battle royale games. While many small studios are tight knit and consider employees members of the family, Get Up Games literally consists of developers who are all related to each other, specifically four cousins who are two sets of brothers.
