Lessons like Lesson 16 - Algorithm for Base Maze Shape and Lesson 18 - Custom Backtrack System will guide you in constructing the maze system and generating tiles dynamically.Create dynamic rooms, dividing them into different categories and adding props, textures, and materials to bring variety and life to your dungeon.Implement an elevator mechanic for endless levels, adding progression by unlocking new floors and challenges.Craft interactive chests and items, allowing players to collect loot like health potions, speed boosts, and gold, all managed via custom inventory systems. These mechanics are covered in Lesson 63 - Animating Chest Blueprint and Lesson 69 - Pick Up Items and Add to Inventory.Design custom enemy AI that patrols, attacks, and reacts to player actions for challenging, tactical gameplay, as shown in Lesson 120 - AI Patrol Behavior & Panic Mode and Lesson 121 - AI Attack Mode & Line of Sight Checks.Integrate physics interactions, realistic lighting, and immersive sound effects to elevate your dungeon s atmosphere and depth, as seen in Lesson 48 - Spawning Torch Lights and Lesson 49 - Torch Flicker Effect.Course Breakdown:This comprehensive workshop begins with the essentials setting up a top-down game mode and creating a fully functional main menu. You ll dive into Unreal Engine s Blueprints, where we ll implement procedural generation algorithms, enabling you to dynamically build endless dungeons complete with enemy AI and environmental props.Along the way, you will dip your hands into:Procedural Dungeon Generation: Using custom algorithms to spawn walls, floors, and rooms.Player Combat Mechanics: Design melee and ranged attacks, complete with knockback effects, explored in Lesson 97 - Melee Attack Blueprint Collisions & Effects and Lesson 99 - Static Aiming & Shooting Mechanics.AI Behavior: Build enemies that patrol, attack, and strategically reposition themselves.Interactive Elements: Create chests, traps, and elevators, adding depth and challenge to your game.Advanced UI Systems: Implement a 3D minimap, health bars, inventory, and item pickup animations, covered in Lesson 85 - Minimap System and Lesson 87 - Player Health System & Widget.Your Resource Pack:To ensure you have everything you need, you ll gain access to an extensive resource pack, including:21 UI textures for custom HUDs.133 texture maps to create 53 stylized materials.2 preset particle effects for explosions and fire.17 immersive audio effects for environmental sound design.63 meshes across 5 preset dungeon styles (stone, mossy cobblestone, wood, brick, and a dark chamber style) complete with entrances, walls, floors, props, and torches.A highlight post-process effect to maintain player visibility in complex environments.Course OutlineIn this course, we re going to start by covering the game essentials basically setting up the core game mode and layout in Unreal Engine 5. Once that s sorted, we ll move on to creating a main menu that s both super user-friendly and nice to look at.After we ve got the basics down, we ll dive into procedural maze generation. This is where you ll start building your dungeons, and it gets pretty fun. As we keep going, you ll define your own custom rules for room generation, like creating unique tiles and exit points, which really helps enhance the player s experience.To make things even cooler, we ll bring in a custom backtrack algorithm, so every playthrough feels fresh and different. Then, we ll step things up by tackling enemy AI and combat, where you ll create advanced systems that add some real challenge and depth to the game.Finally, we ll wrap it all up by implementing an inventory system.
