In this Course, you will learn Modern Game Development approaches using Unreal Engine 5.2 and Lyra Sample Project as a Gameplay Ability System Framework. Only Free assets from the Marketplace will be used throughout this course. Any reference to the Paid assets are just for reference and a better suggestion and completely optional.

This course will be "To the Point" and no time will be wasted. We will be exploring the different features in Lyra and How we can use them in modern game development projects. In this course, we will cover the development of a Combat game using the reusable features in Lyra.  We will start with the understanding of the Lyra Framework features and the concepts of Gameplay Ability System. Then gradually start making modifications and add more features to build our own unique games. We will be using the Market place Characters and Metahumans in this course.

We will do some customization to the Lyra gameplay with  changes to the Blueprint and C++. We will also create a photo realistic open world Jungle environment using Procedural tools. We will then extend the Lyra Features and add Archer and Melee Abilities. We will then deep dive into the implementation of some of the Lyra Components and explore the blueprints.

We will start the course very light with Basic concepts of Lyra and slowly start using the Lyra features to develop the game. Modular game development approach is followed. The course is targeted for Beginner to Intermediate level Unreal Engine game developers. We wont cover the Unreal Engine concepts from the scratch, but focus more towards using Lyra in Unreal Engine.
