It’s this phenomenal real-time 3D engine, highly complex, used for game development and architectural visualizations. I’d like to use it for animations that don’t require lengthy rendering. It brings together my passions about 3D and coding/programming knowledge. There’s a LOT to learn, but I have a feeling it’ll be very exciting to delve deeper into this thing.
So far I've written 63 articles about Unreal Engine 4 on this site.
Here's a huge long list of every single one. If you prefer a view with teaser content and pictures, take a look at the Unreal Archives.
