Wanted to try something a little bit different for this video!
I've been playing around a lot with a free physics plugin for Unreal called Kawaii Physics which allows for stylized movement of hair and clothing and want to give you an overview of the games using it and how it works.

Hey everyone!
I'm happy to show you the first episode of a new series I've been working on!
Every month I want to show off 5 Unreal Engine games and share stories and background information on how they were created, why the teams chose Unreal, how much they earned and much more.
...
FAB, the new unreal engine marketplace just launched!
This video will give you a breakdown of what to look out for.
I created this video last minute, so it will be made available on Patreon and YouTube at the same time.

Hey everyone.
Glad to finally be able to share this tutorial about Depth of Field!
Many things have changed with DOF and most other tutorials only cover it when it comes to cutscenes, so I made this video about how to apply it during gameplay as well!
