Unreal Engine Workshop: Complete Platformer Edition

From Nov 2 to Nov 6, 2015
6:30pm -> 9:30pm
AltCity Media

If the idea of creating your own 2D platformer from scratch seems tantalizing to you then you should definitely check yourself in.
This workshop will run for three days during which we should have a fully functioning platformer with a main character, enemies, turrets, a map with obstacles and an objective.

Full rundown of what we’ll be covering during this workshop:
– The newly released Tilemap and Tileset editors. These tools make building 2D maps and layouts a cinch.
– Motion and damage controller Blueprints for the main character.
– Blueprints for enemy pawns, turrets and obstacles.
– UMD UI designer to track things like health and ammo.
– Level controller Blueprints (i.e restart level).

Cost
$20 for three days
