Dream of making your own Zoo builder game? Or how about a theme park game? Tycoon Template is a big jumpstart for anyone looking to build a zoo, rollercoaster, theme park, circus, industrial builder game which relies on visitors, finances, debts, and attractions.

The majority of this template works with data tables, enums, and child blueprints of the building actor. This makes it very quick and easy to add additional buildings, structures, or objects to your game in just minutes. With fully commented and detailed blueprints, there is pointers on how to modify the code within the blueprint to quick switching.

The Tycoon Template is slightly more aimed towards zoo building, however, it covers a vast majority of the mechanics required for a rollercoaster or theme park. All current "attractions" can be converted to theme park, zoo or other locations for visitors to satisfy their needs.

NOTICE: While the asset is designed to take out as much coding as possible, this asset is not designed for beginners to unreal engine. A fair amount of blueprint knowledge is expected. A 34 page document has been constructed, explaining the core functionality and how the asset can be used to make sure that the usage and possibilities are clearly known. AI for animal behavior and animals themselves are not provided in this template if planning a zoo.
