Epic DESTROYED the 2D Template, so I Created My Own | Unreal Engine 5 2D Tutorial
Epic Blew Up the 2D game project when they moved to Unreal Engine 5.
I don’t really understand why.
But I need it back. It is hard to start making my 2D platforming Indie Game if I can’t work in just two dimensions, so I guess I’m creating my own. And I figured why not share, since this journey took HOURS of my time changing this Third Person Template, to a basic 2D world that I could use as a launching point for my projects.
So where do we begin? Follow along as we transform the Third Person project template into a useable 2D platforming template!
