Hey all!
So at the beginning of this year, 2025, I made myself a resolution to teach myself Unreal Engine 5. For years, even as far back as when I first got into college, game design was a passion of mine. My first semester at school I actually took Computer Science classes to learn programming and attempt to make my own games. Sadly, I bounced off the course at first and ended up pursuing another major. However, in the following years, I still kept that dream in my head and often still attempted to teach myself C++ and other programing languages.
Now, I’ve taken my first steps and with the help of a Udemy course, I have begun work on my first ever game! Also, no need to worry, there are still plenty of amazing TTRPGs still in the works. For now, I am more than happy to introduce you to the WPG Dev Log as we chronicle the journey to create my very own video game.
So far the working title is "Rise", a game set in my DnD campaign world dealing with the character trying to fight their way out of the underworld. Some of you might have seen some posts from our Bluesky account, but I figured it would be nice to compile all the information here in one organized space.
For now, enjoy the attached image, as it shows a brief outline of what this game actually would look like!
