Course Overview

In this game design course, I'll be guiding you step by step through the creation of a side scrolling platformer game (akin to the classic "Mario" games) using Unreal Engine:  THE premier free to download gaming engine!  (AND the SAME engine used to build the smash hit "Fortnite.")

This course contains over 100+ fun to follow video lessons (follow along in sequence).  Things learned in this course include:

  • How to setup and create a project in Unreal Engine

  • How to construct a 2D level using 3D objects

  • How to setup a side scrolling camera

  • How to setup a character's movement mechanics

  • How to create interactive objects using Blueprint Scripting

  • How to create powerups and special player abilities

  • How to implement simple enemy AI

  • How to create a checkpoint system

  • How to respawn a player

  • How to create a working HUD

  • How to create interactive menus

  • How to create a dynamic way of implementing "Level Settings" (making things like customizing music and time limits per level a cinch!)

  • How to architecture a gaming project inside Unreal's Project Settings


With the knowledge gained in these video lessons, you will be armed with the necessary skills to start building your OWN gaming creations (WITHOUT any programming knowledge needed!)


When finished with the course, please send me photos or videos of what YOU have been able to build and I'll share them with the community in future emails.
