Unreal Engine Character Development & Combat Systems

Coursera · Intermediate ·🛡️ AI Safety & Ethics ·1mo ago
This comprehensive course equips learners with the skills to design, implement, synthesize, and evaluate advanced gameplay mechanics using Unreal Engine’s Blueprint system. Through a structured, hands-on approach, learners will progressively build a feature-rich action RPG project from the ground up—starting with character setup and animation pipelines, progressing through dynamic camera and control systems, and culminating in robust AI combat, magic systems, and final game packaging. The course begins with foundational concepts, guiding learners through constructing responsive character blueprints, blendspaces, and animation states. As students advance, they apply input bindings, game modes, and camera logic to build immersive controls. AI design is tackled through reactive behaviors, flinch animations, and magic-based combat mechanics. Learners will then develop layered systems for wave-based enemy spawning, health pickups, and visual feedback, before packaging the completed project into a functional build. By the end of the course, students will have the knowledge and confidence to build, test, and deploy professional-grade gameplay systems using only Blueprints—no prior coding experience required.
