Video Game Development – Unreal Engine

This workshop is an exciting opportunity for students who have always dreamed of creating their own 3D games but have little to no programming experience. Unleash your creativity and bring your ideas to life as you learn to develop 3D games using the industry-standard Unreal Engine. You’ll be introduced to the powerful tools and features of the engine, and learn how to create and manipulate 3D assets, create interactive gameplay, and develop a basic understanding of programming concepts.

You will learn how to use Unreal Engine’s visual scripting system, Blueprints, to control gameplay and create interactive experiences without needing to previously know a programming language. Imagine creating your own 3D worlds, designing characters, and creating an immersive gameplay experience. You will work on hands-on projects and exercises which will give you the opportunity to apply the concepts learned and create your own 3D games.

By the end of the workshop, you’ll have the skills and knowledge to create interactive 3D games using the Unreal Engine and be ready to take the next steps in your education to break into the game development industry while having fun creating games as a hobby.

Students will learn:

• Coding basics using Unreal Engine’s Blueprint system.
• Basic video game programming concepts, including character animation, character behaviors, sound effects, music, and processing user input.
• Game development math such as 3D coordinate systems, vectors, and linear equations.
• Physics topics such as gravity, friction, opposing forces, and momentum.

Outcomes of the workshop:

• Design and develop your own 3D video game.
