Online course - Learning Path: Unreal Engine: Master Game Development by Udemy

If you’re a game developer who is familiar with Unreal Engine 4, and video game development in general, but want to learn more about gameplay programming in Unreal Engine 4, this learning path is for you.

Unreal Engine holds the undisputed title of being the the most successful video game engine.

Learning Path: Unreal Engine: Master Game Development is Packt’s Video Learning Path that is a series of individual video products put together in a logical and stepwise manner such that each video builds on the skills learned in the video before it.

Creating Unreal Engine C++ projects and connecting them to source control. Bring everything together with an RTS-style user interface using Unreal Motion Graphics (UMG).

The above-mentioned activities are some of the highlights of the course.

Beginning with implementing an RTS-style free roaming camera from scratch, you will then move on to selecting Non-Playable Characters (NPCs) through mouse input, and using basic Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Pathfinding to have selected NPCs move around a level. You will then be exposed to the architecture of Unreal Engine 4 classes, memory management, and basic coding utilizing the C++ programming language.

Moving on, create your own high standard game with Unreal Engine 4.x. Finally, in the last module, add a second unit to the game, making a unit attack,creating destructible environments, and bring everything together with an RTS-style user interface using Unreal Motion Graphics (UMG).

The goal of this Learning Path is to make a industry-standard game developer out of you.

This Learning Path is authored by one of the best in the field.
