To finish out a big year of innovative new features and fantastic Havok powered games we decided this demo was too good to keep to industry-only meetings.
Or more accurately, it was thousands of simultaneous real time collisions across Havok Physics Particles systems integrated into the Niagara system in Unreal.
This year at GDC we celebrated our 25-year anniversary, and by harnessing the power of Havok Physics for Unreal we made a fun new interactive demo.
It was a hit!
Havok usually exists behind the scenes powering your favorite AAA games. And Havok demos are a closed door, industry only event.
