Expert Review: Unreal Engine Blueprints-Advanced Gameplay and Logic Systems

By Prosun • December 21, 2025

Course Overview

This course, provided by EDUCBA, is characterized by its rigor and practical application focus. The curriculum covers essential concepts: This projectbased course empowers learners to design, develop, and implement a 2Dstyle arcade shooter game using Unreal Engine’s Blueprint system—no coding required. Through four progressive modules, students will configure core gameplay systems, construct reusable Blueprint classes, and apply loopbased logic to create responsive, scalable mechanics. Each module focuses on a key area of game development: input handling, camera control, object spawning, damage systems, and material feedback. Participants will begin by setting up project environments, binding user inputs, and structuring controller logic. They will then construct fixed camera systems, develop obstacle hierarchies, and apply datadriven control flows using Structs, Enums, and Arrays. Later lessons focus on building asteroid actors, configuring health and collision systems, and managing actor lifecycles with timers and destruction events. Learners will also explore applying material blend modes and transparency techniques to enhance visual design. By the end of , students will be able to: • Create modular and reusable Blueprints for common arcade mechanics • Apply flow control structures such as loops and conditional execution • Design flexible actor behavior using class inheritance and editable properties • Implement realtime interactions, damage logic, and spawn timing • Analyze gameplay systems for performance and responsiveness is ideal for aspiring game developers, designers, and technical artists seeking a handson introduction to gameplay logic without writing C++ code. All concepts guiding learners to apply, analyze, construct, and evaluate their own game systems in Unreal Engine.
