Video Description

Get my 12 hour course on how to make 2D games with Unreal Engine: https://tinyurl.com/Ultimate2D Support the channel on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/CobraCode Making 2D games in Unreal Engine the regular way can be quite hard because Paper 2D lacks many features. In this video I show you how you can use PaperZD which is a plugin that enables you to make 2D games the easy way through adding animation blueprints and anim notifies! Sadly the artist deleted the asset used in this video (https://sventhole.itch.io/prototype-hero-demo) I suggest you follow along using this one instead, since it has similar animations: https://clembod.itch.io/warrior-free-animation-set Character Turn Snippet: https://dev.epicgames.com/community/snippets/PO2/unreal-engine-simple-sprite-direction-change PaperZD in the Unreal Engine Marketplace: https://www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/product/paperzd PaperZD Documentation: https://www.criticalfailure-studio.com/paperzd-documentation/ If you enjoyed this video, please subscribe: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoKYIjbaEX4mnR8IWwtuBwA?sub_confirmation=1 ● Twitter: https://twitter.com/CobraCodeDev ● Discord: https://discord.com/invite/7VVeuZBy42 Timecodes: 0:00 Intro 0:40 Setting up PaperZD 1:47 Preparing character sprites and flipbooks 5:11 Setting up the Animation Source 6:40 Setting up the base character 11:23 Switching to Run animation 14:40 Anim Notifies for Footstep Sounds 15:50 Setting up a State Machine 19:34 Jump and Land Animation 26:09 Particle Effect Flipbook 28:40 Advanced Anim Notifies 35:00 Making the character turn 🎵 Music by: - no one's perfect x Casiio - Solace - Provided by Lofi Records - Watch: https://youtu.be/FMRR3C7qr0M Icons made by Freepik (https://www.freepik.com) from Flaticon (https://www.flaticon.com/) #cobracode #gamedev #madewithunreal #indiedev #gamedevelopment
