In-Person Game Dev Workshop #2!
CURTIN CLUB HQ (BUILDING 106B)
12:00 – 15:00
It is a 2-3 hour code workshop on campus! This is Part 2 of the Unreal Engine Beginners Series. For those who missed out on Part 1, no worries as I will have a ready to go project file to hand out. On top of that, I am aiming for this Game Dev Workshop to also incorporate other game devs who want to come for the social sharing aspect and are not necessarily working in Unreal Engine! We are planning 3 interaction points at the beginning, middle and end where everyone shares what they are up to!    This is intended for all skill levels, little-no coding experience is required. We will be using Unreal Engine and running through the basics of the Engine, setting up a custom character with movement, health system, AI Enemies, and optionally, implementing a beautiful, custom environment.  We will expect you to bring a computer/laptop and to have at least 50GB free space to install the Engine (quite large!) Please let us know if you cannot provide these.    For those coming as part of the Unreal Engine Beginners' Series. Please make sure you have Unreal Engine installed!  Follow this video tutorial from timestamp (2:44-6:45): https://youtu.be/ygDuWZNnBP8?t=164  Or this documentation: https://docs.unrealengine.com/4.27/en-US/Basics/InstallingUnrealEngine/#fromHistory    LOCATION: CURTIN CLUB HQ (BUILDING 106B)  TIME: 12 MAY THURSDAY (12pm-3pm) COST: Free for current club members. $5 for Curtin student sign-ups and $10 for non-Curtin student sign-ups.  View this video to see what you can achieve if you follow all of the workshops we are planning: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1SVD8nm688
