intermediate huh?.. that's good. Hope you'd hang around the programming section for a while, maybe we might get to share some tips and ideas.

@bolded, same dilemma I'm in, no thanks to the dollar issue... At least I can use this time to harness my programming skills while I wait.

BTW, which language do you script with? and which genre 2D or 3D?

I script with c# and quite interested in 3d genre

Is unreal engine good for platformer games?

C++ is something like this #include "MyActor.generated"
UCLASS() ...........................

Unreal is a full featured Engine... Its not strong at 2D, but it is good at 3D. Almost all 3D genres are doable with Unreal

seems you decided to stick with unreal, that's a great choice. I do however hope you have a good system (i.e core i5-i7 @ 2.5ghz and a 1-2gb middle-high class nvidia or ati card from nothing less than 2012), cus unreal unlike unity is hardware intensive and requires a lot of fire power.

That's good, I kinda dunno C#... do however hope my Java skills would suffice

anyway, i do need resource on mastering materials, lighting and shaders in unity... do you have any? preferably an ebook. Also anything on audio

Unreal engine 4 is completely free and has 5% royalty of your game profit, and it is best for creating a first person shooter game, and it is high in graphics..WHILE Unity has a free verson which is free of charge to use, and also has a pro version which the license has to be bought with $1500, or you can pay $75/month and has no royalty fees, it is a cross platform game engine, it works in 2d and 3d, it has been used in creating a platformer games like INSIDE. What i'm trying to say or ask, is that WHICH GAME ENGINE IS BEST FOR CREATING A 3D PLATFORMER GAME?

I believe i have a book that's detailed in shaders, but i have to peruse my external hard drive to find it. Send me your email address so i can forward it to you when i locate it.
