Course Description
In this game design course, I will 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 75+ 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
