Overprime began as a personal project by an aspiring game developer called RocketMania from South Korea. It was in active development from mid-2018 to mid-2019, with the purpose of learning Unreal Engine 4 and building a portfolio.

I am delighted to have had the opportunity to chat with Nelson 'TekkVicious' Lee, the developer behind an old favourite of mine Enmity Campaign. We talk about Warcraft III, the fighting game community, design decisions, and what can be learned through the process of game development.
