It's funny how times change. Back in the days, devs used all sorts of tricks on home computers to create the illusion of 3D, such as parallax scrolling, vector balls, voxels, isometric, etc. And today, they're trying to emulate 2D graphics in a 3D enginešŸ™ˆšŸ˜‚

It's incredible what unreal is capable of when it comes to 2d games. Octopath is probably the most known example. It really deserves more support not only from Epic, but also the community by making more tutorials/guides. I feel this lack of support is currently the biggest barrier to entry for a lot of new people.

As a UNITY (former) purist, I used to be against hearing out the Unreal squad. But with age and work experience, I learned that ā€œease of useā€ is worth its weight in gold. So now I'm starting to contemplate embarking on an Unreal Engine journey for the game that I am currently documenting.

As someone who has been making a 2D game in Unreal for almost 2 years now, I can absolutely agree its possible. Unreal is great for both 2D and 3D, you just have to be a bit creative when it comes to solving some problems that other engines tackle better.

This channel has opened my eyes to so many things in the game dev space. I love how this channel has multiple developer including yourself, as it makes it feel so unbiased and actually helpful.

Basically, ignore the hivemind and use the engine that you can use best. Game dev is hard enough, so don't just force yourself to use an engine you don't understand. If UE fits with you and your style, even for 2D, use it!

Itā€™s very cool that you choose to use your platform to feature people with more experience like this, or when you have Felipe speak about 3D. I recently started following Cobra so Iā€™m glad to see the boost to their platform!

Awesome stuff CobraCode, I have a portfolio thanks to your classes and tutorials. Excited to keep going along the unreal path.

Cobra Code spreading the good word šŸ’Ŗ A game engine is more than it's graphics, while game engines often sell themselves with their graphical capacities (specially Unreal), Unreal has a lot more to offert and a large portion of what makes Unreal great has nothing to do with being a 3D game or 2D game.

Hi!!! I was just getting into a real gaming engine after making games on Roblox for several years. I grew up on the platform and as I grew up realized its limitations while still having the passion for game dev. Picking an engine is daunting especially with unities pricing changes so I decided to go to unreal, but I also wanted to make (not exclusively) 2d games. Thanks for the encouragement!

it's not that you cannot make 2D games with Unreal but there are other tools that do the job of making 2D games easier and offering way more tools than Unreal for 2D games.

Oh yeah, used to make them all the time as a hobby years ago...sprites, paper2d, etc.. UE is more flexible than the interwebs leads people to believe. It used to have a 2d platformer template years ago as well.

As someone making an fps with sprites instead of 3d models, I've been enjoying the process with UE5. I would definitely recommend giving it a try. Also for an old school look you can make the textures slightly emissive and go with unlit or baked lighting. Tons of ways to go about it.

This is the bolt of inspiration I need. Thanks for sharing! I am a RPG kind of guy and would like to try a JRPG genre game.

I bought his new course in Udemy for 2D and it's insanely good! There's a ton of good tips for 2D set ups and also in his Patreon I think he give you a whole full template for getting new projects base on that or I think it's already free but the 2.5D it's just Patreon I don't remember
