Hi everyone, I’m a solo developer just starting my journey with Unreal Engine 5. I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed by the sheer scale of the engine and the pipeline. I want to learn a proper, comprehensive workflow—from the initial concept and 3D modeling/asset creation to the final development stages in UE5.
I know this is a lot to ask, but if anyone could share their experience or point me toward a roadmap that a beginner can realistically follow, I would be deeply grateful. I’m willing to put in the work, I just need a bit of direction so I don’t get lost. Thank you so much for your time and kindness!
Hey there @Ngokhaineee! So there is no real “comprehensive” start, due to the deep nature of game development. However, I have recommended this learning path to get a handle on the basics, then depending on the type of game you want to make I would recommend making the tiniest version of it that you can following tutorials at first, but eventually when you get a grasp of the engine you’ll be able to slowly create your own. If you want, I can recommend more pointed resources based on the game you’d like to work towards, with a little roadmap.
