In this game development course, you’ll learn how to use Unreal Engine’s Widget Blueprints to create a Character based UI (User Interface).  This type of interface can be found in all genres of games!  Games such as The Witcher, God of War, Final Fantasy, and Madden Football ALL have character UIs present in them.  Knowing how to use widget blueprints is a critical skill for those aspiring to be a UX (User Experience) or UI (User Interface) designer on an Unreal Engine project.

This course contains 80 fun-to-follow video lessons.  You’ll learn how to:

Download, install, and setup a project using the Unreal Engine

Add-on (free!) Marketplace content (several Paragon character asset packs)

Import outside assets

Create a character based User Interface layout 

Work with and understand many of the different “Widget” types available in widget blueprints including:

Buttons

Images

Text Boxes

Horizontal & Vertical Boxes

Spinner Boxes

Sliders

Uniform Grid Panels

Create Data Tables

Extract data from a Data Table and Bind Data to Widget Variables in our User Interface

Create Variables, Write Functions, and Create Scripts to make an interactive and editable User Interface

Animate Widgets (such as buttons)

Have UI alterations affect our in-game character (such as character speed)

Create a Save / Load System

And more!
