Hello guys, and welcome to the Pirate Tower Defense Game Course. In this course, I will teach you how to make a Third Person Pirate Tower Defense Game inside of Unreal Engine 5.4 This course will walk you step-by-step how to create this game from complete scratch. I will show you how to create an import a custom character, how to setup the animations, enemy AI and much more. We will create simple waves based gamemode, that will spawn in enemy skeletons. Then we will ad two items that the player and purchase to upgrade their defenses. We will wrap up our game by creating a custom island map using FREE assets from Kitbash3D and Quixel Megascans. Then we will create a main menu level, main menu widget, and options menu. Finally I’ll show you how to package your game for Windows PC.

seems like we should buy the project for the animations?
Please upload more such amazing educating free game dev videos
A resident evil style game for the next course would be really good.
Thx for this tutorial
Hello bro, prop hunt course is a very good course but it has some shortcomings, please develop it, and thanks for this 8:30h course, amazing
Thx for this course by the way pls tell us how to export this game for mobile as well . Pls reply
Guess ill be working on this all weekend.
Thanks!
Can you make tutorial lock target for game pad
Can You make please a collectables system…. Like You collect 5 things and You get Win screen with two button one take You to link and other back to main menu with timer…… Please….. I beg you
Bro thanks a lot. I see many youtubers, many playlists but no one teaches to make this kind of complete game with a menu bar and multiple levels.
I want to make a game that is somewhat a mix of lethal company and overcooked. would you recommend your survival course for general knowledge of Unreal5 that can be used to make a game like that? Or more so something totally different that a multiplayer pvp survival game?
Amazing!!! I can't wait to attend Smart Poly University!!🎉
WTF Wieso zeigt das dumme Youtube den Titel auf deutsch an? Bauen die in Californien nur noch Scheiße?
Amazing effort and amazing value for us, especially considering this is free haha. I'm blown away by the amount of content you produce at a fairly high caliber, keep it up! I went through most of your survival game course and learned a lot. You're really putting in the work to democratize game development, I applaud it!
Could you please create a video about animation?
How to create, import and set an animation using unreal engine.
brother your course lunching in udemy . please .
holy gucamoley what a chad, drops a 8 hour complete tutorial for free
U'r a hero.
@SmartPoly is this a reupload? It looks familiar.
I'm going through your survival game tutorial and it's been a massive help, thank you for all the lessons. Personally love to see a tutorial for an RTS similar to Warcraft 3
There will be someone selling this on Steam after 2 days.
Such a legend…
YOOO!!!
I am in the multiplayer survival course, have been for a long time lol. Created the prop hunt game, now this! Bro thanks for teaching me so so much! The best to do it honestly!
FOR THE NEXT IDEA (This is some games I wanted to try and make)
1.) A funny "bean character" multiplayer FPS(DANI Style)
2.) Horror hide and seek game. Like the mobile game Granny
3.) Horror Puzzle Game — Like (Poppy Playtime, Choo Choo Charles, FNAF Security Breach) <- You would be great at teaching this one
Please make game on full bodycam game and make advance ai enemy
Thank god.. just found this great tutorial at the right time.. millions thank you sir..!!
I like this kind of full courses; it looks awesome 😎 thank you so much for these efforts
His at it again, I remember doing your zombie wave shooter course years ago. It's still one of the better long videos for UE courses. Looking forward to starting this one.
That is not what a tower defense game is 😀 😀 but also thanks for this this is awesome! <3
You should do an rpg that has a character creator/select screen, and the player has attributes, like strength and speed, and skills that can get better as you use them, like a skill that unlocks animations for the motion matching sampler as you get better (athleticism?)
I've wanted to make a pirate game for so long and you do it in 8 hours 🤣🤣😭😭😭 I hope I can make my dream come true one day.
is it possible getting the files without subbing on patreon?
bro how to do this i dont understand a thing
so you cant even download the animations ? :/
How do we download the animations if not a member of patreon? Its saying 30$ Now I am stuck at 18:00
Great video sir
Thanks for the efforts ❤❤
