About this audiobook
Unreal Engine 5 C++ game development and C++ game programming for beginners. Learn C++ game programming with Unreal Engine 5 by building your first complete game from scratch. This hands-on project guides you through every step, from an empty level to a polished, playable experience. You'll create gameplay code, import assets, and apply professional polish techniques. Perfect for beginners who want practical skills in C++ and game development.
Unlike C# 14 and .NET 10 – Modern Cross-Platform Development Fundamentals by [placeholder] or C# 12 and .NET 8 – Modern Cross-Platform Development Fundamentals by [placeholder], this book focuses exclusively on Unreal Engine 5 and C++ for game creation, not general .NET development. You'll master Unreal's C++ API, Blueprint integration, and asset pipeline while building a real game.
What you'll learn:
Set up Unreal Engine 5 and C++ development environment
Design player controls, AI, and game mechanics with C++
Import and manage 3D assets, sounds, and animations
Implement game logic, UI, and input handling
Polish with lighting, effects, and optimization
Package and deploy your game for Windows
This practical guide assumes no prior Unreal experience. Bennett Halloran's step-by-step approach ensures you build confidence and a portfolio-ready game. Start your game development journey today.
This hands-on C/C++/C#/.NET guide is written to be used at the keyboard: every concept is paired with something you can run, adapt, and keep. You move from first principles to real, working results, with the common errors and fixes called out along the way so you are never stuck for long.
