What is it?

A tidy, non-complicated base project template with unreal's most important features:

• Create your own simple levels, with platforms, traps, switches, enemies, treasure, and more ready to go.

Gamplay Tools!

• ThirdPerson and FirstPerson, but can be adapted to fit any project type.

• Interaction System: open chests & doors

• Easy Inventory: collect gold, keys, and other items

• Enemy: w/simple chase behavior. Check out the slo-mo death ragdoll effect.

• PhysicsHandle: grab PhysicsObjects to pick up and play with.

• Widget-UI ready, simple buttons. Pop in your own functionality.

• Landscape material, Foliage (easy to replace with your own)

• New Enhanced Input Mappings

• Challenge levels examples! Showcasing puzzle with "lock & key" game design.

Who May Need It?

Anyone who is trying jumpstart their project quickly. A tidy selection of pre-setup basic + advanced features in UE5. Don't muck around trying to figure out engine-specific things Unreal should provide examples by default (but doesn't!). This template lays it out for you, and can expand from there.

Originally created for myself and my own use because there were no offerings of a quick project with the most common features ready. I come from a background of 7-years of Unreal Experience, working on projects with Sony/Spider-man/Bandai Namco and others. There are many common pitfalls and time-wasters that can be skipped with a good starter project.

Let me know if you would like to see any features in the future, and feel free to ask any questions!
