# HeadRush

A single-player FPS, with a single arena, single weapon, and single enemy type. HP can be regained from perfect headshots.

## Current Status

- **Core Systems (Complete)**

    - **Movement:** Responsive WASD movement and smooth mouse look using CharacterController.

    - **Shooting:** Raycast-based weapon system with LayerMask filtering (ignores player body so the gunshots reach the enemy).

    - **Enemy AI:** NavMesh-driven enemies that chase the player and deal contact damage.

    - **Game Loop:** Victory/Death states with restart functionality.

- **Combat Mechanics**

    - **Headshot:** Head collider detection that deals 2x damage and heals the player.

    - **Feedback:**

        - **Visual:** Muzzle flashes, camera recoil, and enemy hit-flashing (red).

        - **Audio:** Triggered weapon sound effects.

        - **UI:** Central crosshair, Player HP bar, and dynamic floating HP bars for enemies when shot.

- The project is currently a fully playable vertical slice.

- It has graybox 3D geometry for the current development phase.

- **Next Steps:** Replacing placeholder cube enemies with actual enemy assets and refining the in-game world. Have planned a sci-fi arena aesthetic for final production.

> [!NOTE]  

> This game is **very, very loosely inspired** by the mechanics of ULTRAKILL (HP regain, except this game does it from headshots instead of melee kills), though on a much, much smaller and simpler scale. It's nowhere near as fast-paced or as high-mobility or as fun as ULTRAKILL, not even close. I still need to work a LOOOOT HARDER and put in a LOOOOT MORE HOURS into this project before it actually feels fun to play. This is just a small learning project currently in **very early stages of development**.
