Unreal Engine 5 C++ The Ultimate Game Developer Course (Udemy.com)

Absolutely slammed it out of the park! This is THE ultimate starter course for anyone new to Unreal Engine. Stephen breaks everything down so clearly that even total beginners can follow along and build a full Action‑RPG from scratch. I went from zero to feeling confident in Blueprints, animation, combat, and game logic. If you're on the fence – just buy it. Best UE investment I've made. Huge thanks, Stephen!

The instructor explains things well and as someone new to Unreal Engine I felt that he was explaining things well. But the title is misleading. After about 10% of the course so many sections needed workarounds due to it being deprecated. The input section, the mixamo conversion, even some selections with options in the engine. This needs to be updated or at the very least give the students a heads up that it may be deprecated in the description. I also feel like there is more backtracking the further you get into the course. At the start it was good to figure out how to do something on blueprints then do the same in C++, but later in the course he would show one way to do something in C++, then delete it to show another way, then delete that to show another way again which just causes unnecessary frustrations.

As a beginner, I was worried it might be too difficult, but the step-by-step guidance made it so easy to follow. The instructor explains complex concepts in a very easy-to-understand way. I learned a lot from this course and feel much more confident using Unreal Engine now. Thank you for the amazing content! It’s perfect for beginners!

Throughout this course I felt involved, challenged, sometimes confused and even frustrated, but I asked questions in the discord and got answers usually within the hour if not within max 24 hours. After reaching the end of the course I am left with an overwhelming sense of joy and accomplishment. Stephen is an absolute master class teacher and has an extremely approachable personality. I entered Unreal feeling intimidated, lost, hopeless. After Stephen's teaching in this course, I feel far far more confident to not only recreate my own small game but to branch out, read and understand new Unreal documentation. This was not just a course on building a small game, it was a course on building the knowledge and confidence to experiment and explore Unreal. Thank you Stephen!

This course exceeded my expectations in every way. The content was clear, well-structured, and easy to follow, even for more complex topics. I especially appreciated how practical the lessons were—I was able to apply what I learned immediately. Overall, a great experience and definitely worth it.

I put a lot of time and effort into this and learned a lot because of it. I've really enjoyed what I've learned and I'm excited to continue my game dev journey building on this valuable knowledge and skills I've picked up. I love Stephen's teaching style, as it really works for my learning style. I'm excited to put what I've learned to use as a Game Dev, and I would love to check out more of his courses in the future.

As usual, I loved Stephen's course, this is probably my 3rd course I did from him, currently on my 5th. The pattern I see in general is that around the middle there's a heavy code section with refactoring, that can be very daunting, but get through it and the returns are worth it. Take it from a programmer with some 18 years of experience learning Unreal C++, refactoring is always a good thing, even if it's a bit tedious.

I have bought and watched several Unreal trainings: 12 on Gamedev.tv and 8 on Udemy. in my opinion this is the best thorough beginner training and covers well BOTH Blueprints and C++. Stephen Ullibari is a outstanding trainer ... to me. Also check his 107h course on GAS: it cover a full Diablo-like game. Roger from France, near Paris

The course is great, Stephen is a good teacher, it's definitely worthwhile. There is some friction: a) when bridging older/newer UE capabilities he tends to refer you to external resources instead of updating the course; b) he sometimes answers questions with the "It works on my system" kind of thing, though other students usually fill that gap thankfully; and c) sometimes he will over-explain something that doesn't benefit from it, and then under-explain something that really needed more, but that is rare and not a big problem. Good stuff.

Well, it was a heck of a journey. I thought 53 hours will take a couple months but then life happened and I completed it exactly on the last day of my 5th month on this course. Talking about the course, it's awesome for beginners. I had experience with developing games with C# in Unity but I'll consider myself as a beginner only. The course never really felt stale or repetitive, it covers vast areas of gamedev, enough to nudge you into the professional area of game development. The course language is simple, Stephen is a great instructor, Highly Recommended Course. Pro Tip: Dont copy and paste code side by side, watch 2-3 videos and try do the same thing after closing Udemy, you'll feel great.
