Hey guys . i just interested in using UE4 as my engine and start both advanced programming and game making . btw i born to make games so … cant wait to start. but as u know there r very very few and scattered tutorials for 2d stuff and there s no FOR 0 EXPERIENCE point to start with . so im pretty confused , searched youtube Ue forums and everything. sounds like all of em need u to know basics in ue (esp the paper2d ) lack of good sources to mess with made me take a step back. UE has pretty good offers both in price and power and not limiting u to some isolated programming and paying for everything but on the other side unity offers me TOONS of tutorials for 2d gamemaking.

I’m really confused and donno what to do. if i start ue4 i might give up while gazing through menus and googling every single thing . but if i move on unity i ll make my first games and then run outta budget because of 3000$ per user license that makes no sense for a newbie studio . So i beg u all guys to link me some good guides and BOOKs (due to my ***** connection i cant wait a day for 5 minute vids so last place for vids) to show me the START NEW GAME on dev life.

Thanks. HN

  1. take a look at the official tutorials → start with this one: Get Started With UE4 - YouTube
  2. use the documentation: Unreal Engine 5.1 Documentation | Unreal Engine 5.1 Documentation
  3. just start a small project → easiest way to learn the engine
  4. when you are stuck with something, post a question into the forum or answerhub → we are always here to help you :slight_smile:
  5. Also take a look at this series: ?v=9FKG7fFWKOA

If you have the latest launcher, go into the Learn tab and there are at least 3 tutorials plus a new Paper2D handdrawn stickman game you can pick apart and see how they did it all.
