Pennsylvania Station, 1910 is a 1:1 reconstruction of the historic New York station in Unreal Engine by @Gregorio_Design. The project is the culmination of extensive research, texturing, lighting, assembly and more. For Dimitri, it developed from a personal project into something tion or educational endeavor.

"There are so many lost buildings, places, and moments in history that only survive through photographs, drawings, and documents. Unreal gives artists the ability to take that material and turn it into something people can actually experience in the modern era.

Don’t be afraid of an idea because it feels too ambitious. Start building it. You might be surprised how far you can take it." - Dimitri Gregorio

Developers @Ephemera_Works is an indie studio started by four friends in Argentina, whose roguelike action RPG ‘Kernel Hearts’ sold over 100,000 pre-orders before launch. Hear from the devs on how they built it with core UE systems, and how Epic Online Services and Epic Games l team reach players 🧵

“The Online Subsystem has greatly facilitated our peer-to-peer (P2P) match handling and connection with platform features. As a small team, not having to deal with the boilerplate and minute details of each PC storefront or console platform integration is a god-send.

To improve sed Epic Online Services' (EOS) functionality to enable crossplay. This really expedited our implementation thanks to how easy EOS and the Online Subsystem EOS plugin integrated with other online systems.” - Gonzalo Ferretti Da Silva, Lead Programmer

“We started ‘Kernel Hearts’ as four friends making the game we had always wanted to play, so seeing Fernet become part of Fortnite was something we could barely believe. Working with the teams at Epic Games Store and Fortnite gave us the opportunity to introduce a character we audience far beyond anything we could have reached on our own.

The response to the collaboration and the Epic Games Store pre-purchase offer exceeded every expectation we had. We sold over 100,000 units through pre-orders before the game even launched. For a small independent studio from Argentina, that kind of support changes what the future looks like. It gives us the stability to keep improving ‘Kernel Hearts’, take care of our team, and continue making games together for a long time.” - Akira Sipes, Studio Director & Founder, Ephemera Games
