C++ for 3D Game Development with Unreal Engine

About this audiobook
Most people who want to make 3D games start with an idea: a puzzle-filled alien planet, a racing game, a world to explore. This book starts there too, and then shows you how to build it in C++ with Unreal Engine 5, assuming no programming experience at all.
You begin by installing the engine and Visual Studio and getting a simple 3D "Hello World" scene running. From there, each chapter adds one layer of the language and puts it straight to work in a game: data types, variables and memory; decisions and control flow; loops that automate repetitive game tasks; functions, player input and modular code. The object-oriented chapters turn classes, inheritance and polymorphism into game hierarchies of characters and weapons, and later chapters cover containers, exceptions, file I/O, events and UI integration.
Everything builds toward the final chapter, where you take a complete 3D game from concept to polish. Along the way you get plain-English analogies, real-world applications, hands-on exercises and warnings about the mistakes that trip beginners up, such as skipping the game development workload when installing Visual Studio.
Written for beginners who would rather finish a small, playable game than read a tour of every panel in the editor.
