Outcomes
- Furthered my knowledge of creating and implementing UI with Unreal Engine Widgets
- Learned how to program UI functions via the Unreal Blueprint visual coding system
- Practiced my skills using the Unreal Editor to implement a player character, light a scene, and implement environmental effects
To improve this project moving forward I will be creating custom stylized UI elements via Photoshop and implementing them in engine. This will help further my UI skills and make the project stand out as both a UI Art and UI Implementation project.
