Hussarion is a shooter developed by an independent Polish team of Carbon Studio. Just like the previous works of this team, namely ALICE VR and The Wizards, the production described here was created with the PC platform and virtual reality sets in mind. The project was financed by the Polish Ministry of Culture and National Heritage.
### Story
Story Hussars In an original way combines elements taken from Polish history and Slavic mythology with science fiction motifs. In the near future, the Earth is being invaded by the so-called Simargs, aggressive aliens capable of turning all their lives into dust on the Blue Planet. Players take on the role of a combat robot, whose appearance is modelled on the famous hussars, and their task is to face the invaders and neutralize the threat before it’s too late.
### Mechanics
In the Hussarion released on the PC platform we observe the action from the perspective of the first person (FPP). The gameplay does not differ significantly from the scheme developed by other FPS, so during the game we travel through different locations and face adversaries – the key to success is cooperation with other players. The title requires virtual reality goggles and dedicated motion controllers – with the help of the latter we aim with weapons and interact with elements of the environment.
### Technical issues
Just like the earlier works of Carbon Studio, Hussarion runs on the Unreal Engine engine, which allowed developers to obtain high quality graphics. The main focus is on the environment with attention to detail, realistic lighting and special effects accompanying the clashes with the opponents.
