PAY ATTENTION: This course is designed for intermediate or advanced learners.

First of all, this course is based on a my commercial game I created.

And I recommend to learn this course by using UE5.3 . If you use newer version, some plugins might be not available.

This course took me several hundreds of hours to develop, with detailed videos spreading over more than 70 lectures, covering wide scope of modules to create a survivors style game including:

• Setup paper flipbook animations for player character, 20+ mobs and 2 BOSSES movement
• 56 waves of enemies that increase in difficulty over time with different patterns
• 13 unique roguelike upgradable skills and player character leveling up system
• Object pooling framework to handle large number of actors during 20 minutes gameplay
• Unique skills for BOSSES and 2 types of layer sorting methods
• Permanent save-loading system to save progress and shop system
• Enhanced Input movement component for controlling player
• Reusable damage texts instance and animation, sound management to avoid crashing issue
• Utilize data table to handle large number of attributes of player character, skills, enemies

• Implement 8 active skill slots and 8 passive skill slots logics to accomodate selected skills
