Skill UI

This skill guides the full lifecycle of game development, from architecture design (ECS, component systems) to high-performance implementation. It covers integrating Unity/Unreal Engine features, implementing complex physics, multiplayer networking with lag compensation, and achieving consistent 60+ FPS performance. Key techniques include object pooling, state machines, and rigorous profiling to ensure production-ready, scalable game systems.

This guide provides comprehensive principles for modern game development, covering engine selection (Unity, Unreal, Godot), platform integration (Steam features, console compliance), input abstraction, and performance optimization techniques. It helps developers make informed decisions when building cross-platform games for PC and console environments.

This expert guide provides comprehensive best practices for developing robust, high-performance C++ code within Unreal Engine 5.x. It covers critical topics such as UObject lifecycle management, adhering to Epic Games' strict coding conventions, optimizing performance-critical sections (e.g., avoiding unnecessary Ticking), and correctly using soft references for asset loading. Use this skill for professional game development tasks requiring deep knowledge of the Unreal reflection system and advanced C++ patterns.

Routes game development requests to specialized skills by detecting the game engine (Godot, Unity, Unreal, etc.) and task type, then reads the chosen skill before acting. Use when starting any game dev project or unsure which skill to use.

Build NPC AI in Unreal Engine 5 using Behavior Trees and Blackboards. Covers composites, tasks, decorators, and services. Use for enemy/NPC logic, custom nodes, and AIController integration. Targets UE 5.8.

Learn how to build complex, reusable gameplay logic in Unreal Engine 5 using Blueprints. This guide covers Blueprint Classes, Event Graphs, Construction Scripts, and advanced communication methods (Interfaces, Event Dispatchers) to structure decoupled game systems without writing C++. Ideal for designers and developers who prefer visual scripting.

Master the technical foundation of gameplay programming in Unreal Engine 5 using C++. This skill covers essential concepts such as reflection macros (UCLASS, UPROPERTY, UFUNCTION), understanding the core Gameplay Framework roles (Pawn, Character, GameMode), and correctly structuring module dependencies using Build.cs. Use this when writing low-level game logic, exposing C++ features to Blueprints, or integrating custom systems into the Unreal ecosystem.

A comprehensive guide to implementing modern player input in Unreal Engine 5 using the Enhanced Input system. Learn how to set up Input Actions (IA_), Input Mapping Contexts (IMC_), modifiers, and triggers. Covers binding actions in both C++ and Blueprints, providing a data-driven approach to movement, looking, and general gameplay controls, moving beyond legacy input methods.

A comprehensive guide to building and controlling real-time visual effects (VFX) in Unreal Engine 5 using the Niagara system. Learn the System/Emitter/Module hierarchy, how to expose user parameters for game logic control, and methods for spawning and driving complex particle effects at runtime using both C++ and Blueprints. Ideal for gameplay-driven visual assets.

A comprehensive guide detailing how to transform an Unreal Engine 5 project into a runnable, distributable build. It covers all aspects of the build pipeline, including selecting appropriate configurations (Development vs. Shipping), cooking content, setting the game default map, and executing the build via both the editor GUI and the command line (RunUAT BuildCookRun). Essential for releasing stable, optimized games.

Engine selection and platform-specific principles for PC and console games. Covers Unity, Godot and Unreal comparison, Steam and console certification features, controller action mapping, haptics, and profiling-driven performance optimization.
