ECHO-33 is a co-op, alien rescue adventure island available on Fortnite.

This island was created during the Epic Games, UEFN Bootcamp part of the Unreal Fellowship program.
The island published on time, before the first deadline.
In just three weeks I learned:
- Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN)
- Verse coding
- Devices, their functions, and how to connect them.
- Level Design
- Prototyping
- Layout Design
- Playtesting
- IARC age rating system
- Publishing
- Marketing
- World building in an established game's ecosystem on a tight deadline.
- Utilized existing assets for light weight optimized gameplay.

Thank you to Epic Games for creating such an amazing program! It was truly an awesome learning experience.

You can play this island on Fortnite, by going to the Discover tab, and searching for ECHO-33 or placing my island code 6782-2027-0384 into the search bar.

Additionally you can access it directly using this link: https://play.fn.gg/island/6782-2027-0384?pl=cr00001

I utilized AI tools in creating the Verse scripts (available on GitHub soon) and in creating the characters and shield dome for the thumbnail.

I am planning to develop this island further.
All feedback is welcomed.
