Is UE5 good for a topdown Bullet hell?

I am working on a personal project from scratch and wanted to know if UE5 was the way to go. Its planned to be in the style of an Arcade bullet hell like back in the 90s. I like working in the UE editor and loving the freedom but as a solo there is only so much i can do and find by researching. Should i forge ahead or just settle for a 2d engine?

Hey there @DT_Lotus! Welcome back to the community! Unreal Engine is capable of making most anything you desire, though the limitations are more often encountered more so in user capability or time. Unreal is primarily geared towards 3D applications, but is entirely capable of a 2D workflow (albeit it using 3D space regardless). As a completely biased source however, if you have any questions about anything you’re implementing definitely feel free to ask questions here on the forums!
