Button Simulator

Overview

Button Simulator is a Fortnite experience I developed in UEFN using Verse, Epic’s then-new scripting language. The game focuses on progression through multiple currencies, pets, and islands, giving players new ways to increase their cash generation as they advance.

Gameplay Features

• Unlock multiple currencies that boost cash gain
• Purchase pets that provide additional income multipliers
• Progress through different islands, each introducing a new currency and progression layer

Development

This project was built while both UEFN and Verse were still very new and often affected by bugs and limitations. Working under those conditions helped me strengthen my debugging, problem-solving, and adaptability skills.

Technical Challenge

One of the biggest technical limitations at the time was that the platform could not reliably save values above 10,000. Since large-number progression was central to the game, I developed a custom solution that stored each currency using three separate values.

Result

This system allowed the game to support numbers far beyond the default limit, making Button Simulator one of the first games on the platform to save progression at a much larger scale than normally possible.
