Unreal Engine 5: Creating Interactive Tutorial Messages and Platform-Specific Input #ue5 #narrative
12In this Unreal Engine 5 tutorial, learn how to implement interactive tutorial messages that guide players through the game's controls. I demonstrate step-by-step how to create on-screen prompts like "Press SPACE to jump" and "Press X or circle for platform-specific input." Explore two connection methods – velocity-based and event dispatcher-based – to detect user input effectively. Elevate your game's user experience by empowering players with clear and informative tutorial messages tailored to their platform.
