Learn the tools and techniques of game design using a project-based approach with Unreal Engine 4 and C++
Game development can be both a creatively fulfilling hobby and a full-time career path. It's also an exciting way to improve your C++ skills and apply them in engaging and challenging projects.
Game Development Projects with Unreal Engine starts with the basic skills you'll need to get started as a game developer. The fundamentals of game design will be explained clearly and demonstrated practically with realistic exercises. You'll then apply what you've learned with challenging activities.
The book starts with an introduction to the Unreal Editor and key concepts such as actors, blueprints, animations, inheritance, and player input. You'll then move on to the first of three projects: building a dodgeball game. In this project, you'll explore line traces, collisions, projectiles, user interface, and sound effects, combining these concepts to showcase your new skills.
You'll then move on to the second project; a side-scroller game, where you'll implement concepts including animation blending, enemy AI, spawning objects, and collectibles. The final project is an FPS game, where you will cover the key concepts behind creating a multiplayer environment.
By the end of this Unreal Engine 4 game development book, you'll have the confidence and knowledge to get started on your own creative UE4 projects and bring your ideas to life.
This book is suitable for anyone who wants to get started using UE4 for game development. It will also be useful for anyone who has used Unreal Engine before and wants to consolidate, improve and apply their skills. To grasp the concepts explained in this book better, you must have prior knowledge of the basics of C++ and understand variables, functions, classes, polymorphism, and pointers. For full compatibility with the IDE used in this book, a Windows system is recommended.

David Pereira started his game development journey in 1998, where he learned to use Clickteam's The Games Factory to make his own small games. He graduated with a bachelor's degree in computer science from FCT-UNL, where he learned how to program in C++ with OpenGL and DirectX, which allowed him to create more complex games. After working in IT consulting for a few years, he joined Miniclip Portugal where he worked on popular mobile games like 8 Ball Pool, Gravity Guy 1 and 2, Extreme Skater, iStunt2, and Hambo. Today, he's working on his own game, a soon to be announced First-Person Action RPG.
