As title states- it’s for a college assignment alpha build, I’m just looking to have a very simple representation of a character bouncing around, think the Matrioska dolls in ‘Stacking’. With controls and camera controls.
A lot of tutorials online for this topic try to set up a full humanoid character. Anyone know of a simpler implementation on YT or something? I haven’t had any luck finding one myself…
Thanks in advance
Here’s a course that’s exactly what you’re looking for 
I saw that one a few days ago, but like I said in the OP, I’m not looking for any humanoid style complexity with skeletons and all that. Think like a chess piece bouncing around. Something that simplistic.
You don’t need to follow the tutorial exactly, you can even just use a cube model as your character. The course covers the basics that you want, and it’s actually the simplest Unreal course you could ask for! I say give it a shot
