Course Description

So you want to learn Unreal Engine 5...

Welcome to this course, where you step-by-step will be learning a lot! From basic things such as projects, actors, components to animation and blueprints.

I hate when people just show a script and say - that’s how you do it. That’s why in this course, my goal is to explain how everything works so that you can use the elements you learned in different cases, modifying blueprints that you already know.

By the end of this course, you’ll be able to create your own platformer game, which can include:

  • character animation,

  • double jumps,

  • collectables (coins),

  • jumping and moving platforms,

  • triggers  - and much more!

You’ll be able to program a menu for your game, using UI Widgets, and find free assets for your project. Moreover, you'll be able to export the game so that other people can play it.

Yes, this course is perfect for beginner game developers, but even if you want to use Unreal Engine for other things, you’ll find a lot of useful information here, like working with light, collisions and creating blueprints.

More than 5 hours of practical and not boring content - is ready for you to watch! So let’s dive in.

I liked this course because it's not moving on so fast so I can remember what I seen.

By Michael Dannenberg on 8/27/2024

I think this is the perfect first course to start with unreal engine 5. Nothing too fancy or glamorous but it's not just an imitation of what's shown, it also gives you a very good basic understanding how unreal engine 5 works. Especially in the beginning, understanding how things work is much more important than any visual “wow” effects. And that´s exactly what you get here. At least in my opinion.

Kurs dobry, podoba mi się. Najprostsze sposoby zrobienia gry są najlepsze, bez komplikowania problemu. Stworzenie gry i jej eksport poza edytor Unreal Engine. Bardzo dobrze. ---- :-) Good course, I like it. The simplest ways to make a game are the best, without complicating the problem. Creating a game and exporting it outside the Unreal Engine editor. Very good.

Awesome explanations.

By D.W. Frydendall on 6/2/2023

WOW! Blueprint makes complete sense now! Animation is actually a lot more easy than i thought it would be! Ekaterina makes this process painless and fun.
