I am new to this unreal engine and am asking if that I will be capable of making a 2D style games for example a side scroller game? I have come to ask this question due to the fact a lot of the games that have been created by the unreal engine are mostly big, high graphical, and 3D games. So, that is why I want to ask that question because I feel like that it would be a bit complicated to make a 2D game on this engine because it feels like this engine was made for 3D games mainly.
Welcome in the forum! 
In my opinion it’s pretty easy -> paper 2d
Here is a pretty good tutorial series: ?v=9FKG7fFWKOA
you can also check out “chicken” and “swing ninja”, they are both 2D games that epic made witch you can download as examples to learn from.
Ok, Thank you!!!
