There are many reasons why you might want to spend a lot of time and effort designing your game environment. In this course, Joel Bradley discusses the benefits of using environments in games and why having background information and understanding the concepts of game environments can help you create functional landscapes for both the visual and operational aspects of the game. The tools available in Unreal provide answers to questions such as how to create environments in Unreal, how to manage and build environments suitable for your particular project, principles that require thinking when creating textures or filling your scenery. Along with using a project-based lesson model, it presents all of this information in a way that you can apply it to all of your future work projects.
