Building the Core Mechanics of a Pinball Game in UE

Coursera · Advanced ·🖌️ UI/UX Design ·1mo ago
This course empowers learners to build a fully playable and visually engaging Pinball Game using Unreal Engine’s Blueprint visual scripting system. Through a structured, hands-on approach across four in-depth modules, learners will explore essential gameplay elements from the ground up. Participants will apply core development techniques by configuring a responsive player environment, construct interactive objects such as bumpers, flippers, plungers, and scoring systems, and integrate collision-based physics and user-controlled mechanics. The course further guides learners to develop advanced interface components including dynamic scoreboards, player stat displays, and end-game conditions. In the final phase, learners will design and optimize a professional-grade main menu and user interface to complete a polished player experience. Emphasizing both technical precision and design logic, the course challenges students to not only script but also evaluate and refine their gameplay systems for clarity, performance, and player engagement. By the end of the course, learners will have gained practical skills in blueprint logic, physics interaction, UI creation, game state management, and performance optimization, equipping them to build their own interactive arcade-style games or prototype mechanics for more complex projects.
