C++ Programming for Unreal Game Development

This introductory course covers the basics of developing video games using C++ and the Unreal Engine. It assumes previous programming experience and guides learners through writing their first C++ console application and Unreal script. Additionally, it delves into understanding data storage and usage, classes and objects implementation, and the basics of Unreal Engine.

Building on the foundational knowledge from the previous course, this module explores more advanced C++ and Unreal topics. Learners will delve into making decisions in code, utilizing player input in Unreal games, implementing iteration for repeating actions, and exploring various data storage techniques such as arrays and containers within the Unreal Engine.

This course continues to expand the foundational C++ and Unreal knowledge by exploring abstraction in software development, implementing console app classes, understanding how functions work, designing and implementing Unreal classes, and delving into pointers and sound effects in Unreal games.

The final course in the specialization focuses on developing more robust games with better object-oriented designs using file input and output, inheritance and polymorphism, and event handling. Learners will explore the complete implementation of a small Unreal game, gaining more tools to build great games with C++ and Unreal.
