Unreal Engine 4: Co-op Dungeon Crawler Hack n' Slash!

"Many of the other courses I've sampled on Udemy, YouTube, etc. don't deliver. They don't teach you how to actually build and debug projects. Jeff does. It's gritty, it's messy, it's real game development. Following along his development process, his way of thinking and his troubleshooting and debugging methods are the best parts of his courses. It's not enough just to copy what he's doing, you'll learn the how's and why's of it, which are so much more important if you want to expand your knowledge of game development. I guarantee you'll walk away learning something valuable about game development." - G W, student review.

"This course is not like a "how to.." tutorial; it's a journey of real game development." - Stefan, student review.

Thanks for taking interest in my Multiplayer Dungeon Crawler UE4 course. Here are some important notes before you take the plunge:

This course will teach you REAL game development. You are watching me build a game from scratch right in front of you. If you want to take a course where the instructor copy+pastes his code, then this is not the course for you. You'll watch me run into problems, debug them, and work things out which is the most important skill in game development, by far.

This course is designed for beginner to intermediate users of Unreal Engine 4 (3+ months of UE4 experience). I don't want to spend 5 hours explaining the basics of the engine so please review tutorials on Youtube if you're brand new.

I recommend that you have at least a basic understanding of the Engine. I move fast at times and I expect you to figure things out on your own by pausing the video if needed. Purchasing this course does NOT give you personal consulting from me for basic issues.

Dungeon Crawlers are some of my favorite type of games. They're not that complicated, they're fun, difficult at times, and provide hours of entertainment for you and your friends. So let's create one!

I've been building games in Unreal Engine 4 for several years. Come with me as I build this game right in front of you on video teaching you step-by-step.

We'll be using completely free assets. This is both a bless and a curse. We'll have all sorts of free assets to use to create our game, but we're also limited by the free assets which might limit some things that we do.

To start, we'll setup the Paladin class and an AI worm to get our attacking and ability functionality in working order. We want to be able to damage the worm and also get the worm to attack the player.

Once we get some of this basic functionality created, we'll create the next class, the Mage/Wizard.

We will also set up a Spider (melee attack) AI.

We'll also break pots and spawn gold for the player to pick up when they drop.

We'll also set up a Hosting and Joining system that works on STEAM!

This is my second course on Udemy, following my successful Souls-Like RPG Course. If you haven't gone through that course yet, check it out. It's a different type of game, but will further increase your UE4 knowledge.

My inspiration for this game is a 2D dungeon crawler called Hammerwatch. If you've never played it, then check it out and you'll see what we're doing, but in 3D. Should be fun!

The game is also designed with 4-player co-op in mind. I want you to be able to play with your friends over the internet as well as on the couch for 4-player action.

Oh, and we'll also set the game up to work with a game pad. It would be silly not to!

If you've always wanted to make a Top-Down Dungeon Crawler game for Unreal Engine 4, join the course now. It will be a fun, on-going process and you can help me make it great.

Join now and let's get started!
