Unreal Engine 5 Blueprints - The Ultimate Developer Course (Udemy.com)

The course is very thorough and contains detailed explanations for everything. It is also rewarding to complete entire projects and games. The only gripe I have is that he will teach you how to do something at times, and then teach the better way in the next lecture. I understand learning that way teaches the "why" sometimes, but I feel somewhat like what was the point of learning the method the primitive way first? Other than that, the lectures are comprehensive and well worth it for a beginner.

This is one of the best Unreal Engine Blueprint courses I have taken. Stephen Ulibarri explains every concept in a clear, structured, and beginner-friendly way. Instead of just showing which nodes to connect, he explains why each Blueprint works, making it much easier to understand and remember. I learned a lot about Unreal Engine Blueprints, including Events, Functions, Variables, Components, Communication between Blueprints, Physics, Line Traces, Timelines, AI behavior, Behavior Trees, Debugging, and many other essential game development concepts. The hands-on examples and practical exercises helped reinforce everything I learned. The course is very well organized, the video and audio quality are excellent, and the pace is perfect for beginners while still being valuable for intermediate developers. I also appreciate how Stephen shares best practices and real-world development techniques instead of only focusing on getting things to work. This course has greatly improved my confidence in Unreal Engine 5, and I now feel much more prepared to build my own game systems. I highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to learn Unreal Engine Blueprints from the ground up. Thank you, Stephen, for creating such an outstanding course! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Stephen is a great teacher and for me it was the best way into UE5 and blueprint. The games are so much fun to build, that the learning is very motivating. And the Discord Chanel is very helpful if you are stuck. It took me around 4 x of the video time to actually build it and understand it. I took some other more theoretical courses in parallel as I had so much questions about programming concepts like casting that I wanted to understand better. But the most fun ist to take the game and build something on top of it, I made a complete different visual game out of Kix.

This has been a great introduction so far. Some changes to the UI have required checking in with the Discord community, but it is active and a quick search helps resolve any problems I might have. I think this course would be even better if the presenter was more purposeful in his presentation, following a script, and spoke a bit faster, but the information being provided is great fundamentals. Just listen on 1.25x or 1.5x speed, and be ready to skip ahead a bit if the tangents don't seem applicable!

I have thoroughly enjoyed Stephen's blueprints course and will be using these lectures and the discord community as ongoing references. I found the pacing of the lectures to be very good, with time taken to explain why things are working. I have taken other courses that have gone so incredibly fast that I have to pause every few seconds to follow along, and here, there's sometimes a preface of doing a time-lapse in the video edit before it happens. There were a few moments that did feel a bit fast, but I feel after finishing these lessons that it's not such a big deal since the lectures are easy to access and navigate. It's also a great feature to be able to take electronic notes, and some of my questions I had along the way were answered in the Q and A section of the videos. Looking forward to taking some more of his courses in Unreal!

Pretty good overall! Took away some of the FUD that I had regarding Unreal Engine and, using this course as a reference, worked on my own game as I worked through each lecture. There are a few gotchas here and there and some things I'd approach differently, such as making each project a bit more rounded and perhaps packaging up and distributing, and perhaps how to better debug issue but that said, there's more than enough content here to make your own game (which I did!). The community is also great!

This was a great course. I've been completing over several months, making projects along the way to consolidate and apply my knowledge of Unreal Engine 5. Stephen is an excellent teacher and increases complexity at a good pace. A lot is covered in the course to give you a wide idea of what is possible in a UE5 project and how to start approaching those. I found the course to be a good resource and I've come back to earlier lectures to rewatch material many times. I will definitely be taking more of Stephen's courses!

I've used Udemy for over 10 years off and on, but I don't think I've actually ever completed a course from start to finish until this one. This one is also the longest course I have had in my library! I thought Stephen's teaching style and the content covered was excellent as in introduction into UE5 and game development. I appreciated that he gave context as to why we did things the way we did. That kind of content, I believe, can help understand how to use these concepts to solve novel problems and not just replicate one thing. I look forward to doing some prototypes and doing more of his UE5 courses! Highly recommend! The only thing I would change with the course is I would like to have had more challenges added throughout the sections. There are a handful, but more regular ones would help reinforce topics. Though he does suggest extending the projects at the end of the sections to reinforce ideas as well!

The course was amazing. It explained everything in so much detail and helped me understand the complex system of Unreal Engine. Thank you Stephen ,the teaching method was excellent—everything was taught gradually instead of being dumped all at once, which made learning much easier and more enjoyable. I especially loved the challenges that let us try things on our own before seeing the solution. My thanks also go to all the teaching assistants, Andre and Sean E, for your thorough explanations in the Q&A and your dedication to helping students. This course was an amazing experience and I highly recommend it.

Stephen is an excellent instructor! The course was well laid out and taught a huge variety of skills that will be transferrable to a number of different types of projects. I know I'll be referring back to different sections as I work on different projects. What really separates this from youtube tutorials and advice from reddit is the quality of the code. Stephen has worked in a professional setting and has excellent coding fundamentals. Learning how to lay out your project code in a modular way is so valuable.
