In this module, you'll learn how to use events and event handling in your game. Developing our games this way leads to much better object-oriented designs, where objects don't have to know about lots of other objects in the game. You'll also learn how to use Unreal Motion Graphics (UMG) and Slate Widgets to implement menus in your games.
