Leviathan

In a world where a huge space monster is destroying the planet, one flying drone...can make it all happen.

A flying 3D shooter in the spirit of 2D scrollers, Leviathan challanges the player to protect his mothership long enough to destroy the planet. The player glides around as an alien drone, destroys enemy turrets and ships, collects energy for the mothership, and marks enemies for collosal airstrikes fromo the mothership itself.

Leviathan was created on a 17 person team on the Unreal Tournament 3 engine. Leviathan was completed under a 16 week time deadline.

A UT3 patch 1.3 version has be released via ModDB here.
