For Chad Crumbaker (working as KRUMP Games ), it was the promise of full creative freedom that drew him into the world of solo development. I was an early adopter of Unreal Engine 4 and always wanted to get into game development, he says. Originally envisioning a role as a 3D modeler on a team, the accessibility of Unreal Engine inspired him to take on the challenge of crafting every aspect of a game himself.
