How I Made Minecraft In 1 Week Using Unreal Engine 5

Download The Game: skrelo.itch.io/unrealmc
This video is a programming challenge where I aim to create a replica of Minecraft using Unreal Engine 5 in 1 week. As a game developer, I've always admired the technical feat. Minecraft was for voxel games. This compelled me to make my own version using one of the most popular game engines, Unreal Engine 5. This is not a complete replica of Minecraft, as it only has a few of the functionalities found in the main game. My version is meant to be a fun relaxing game where you can just explore the infinite world.

I was watching this and genuinely had to take a double take when I realized this wasn’t some super popular KZbinr. I love the understandable explanations while not being overly complex. Keep up the good work.

[@Skrelo]

That's some seriously kind words, thank you for that! Glad you enjoyed!

[@l3ad25]

This is an underrated video and you deserve wayyy more views, I know you’ll become successful in the near future.

You're a legend, thank you!

The mood you're setting with the synthwave and your voice and your overall theme/ambience in the looks is just so damn good

[@Skrelo]

Appreciate the kind words 😄

[@FFSVAL]

How has this not blown up?? Amazing work dude!

[@UliTroyo]

I love seeing what people choose to implement in these. Some people do greedy meshing, others multiplayer, others LODs, others make a more complete MC clone… I could (and will!) watch these forever.

[@TropicRock]

I wish I knew how to code just so I can attempt thing like this! Awsome job man, you should definitely expand on this idea and keep adding things one piece at a time!

[@heatmiser2002]

Honestly I'd love to see what this would look like with a few months of development and all of the tools unreal 5 has to offer. Great job man!

[@Skrelo]

Thank you!

[@elliotaveri]

this is fucking insane bro. can't believe this doesn't even have 1000 views yet at the time of watching. you deserve all of the clout for this, keep up the good vids man, you just gained a new sub ! :D

[@Akash-._]

Hehe, youtube’s algorithm is doing something right! Cool video! Hope your channel keeps growing, love the quality:)

Thank you! 😁

as a sophomore cs major i’m continuously floored by how talented and dedicated other cs people can be. game design isn’t my cup of tea, but major respect to you for all the effort you put in. truly 1337 :)

[@Skrelo]

Appreciate the kind words! Keep grinding in cs, web dev has always been my backup plan LOL

[@ttraccoon]

The algorithm is about to perform it's magic. This is an amazing video!

[@Miss_Trillium]

This is a great video! It's amazing to see what can be done in a week. Of course, if it were to be made into a game there are some QoL changes to be made, but as a proof of concept this is great. Glad to see this in my recommended, I'll be sticking around. Gonna be the next Game Makers Toolkit 😉

[@Skrelo]

For sure! I have some ideas that I can add on to this in the future! Thank you for sticking around!

[@darkkristyna]

This is an insanely well produced video. I like the end result of the game produced also!

[@mikekelly1771]

So glad the algorithm put this in my feed. Great vid, great editing and production. Magnificent! Subbed.

[@B0B4]

girl i dont know what you did but you've got the algorithm excited. so many people are getting recommended this

[@SolaceFromGrace]

I couldn't even imagine a much needed Unreal Engine 5 Minecraft clone that loads faster on mobile and if it had the same texture quality as RealSource - WOW, just WOW! Now, imagine a Dungeon Rouge-like & Souls-like Action RPG where you have to dig yourself a Dungeon Entrance or a way to a Treasure Room. A game world where you literally build your own Castle to wage war in an open world MMORPG. New subscriber here, I've always wanted to develop a Minecraft open world random map generated game in Unreal Engine 5 but always doubted on how to go about it but thanks to your idea I was inspired.

[@betapotataOld]

Incredible work man, all the effort you put into this really shows. If you keep up this level of quality I’d be shocked if it doesn’t guarantee success for your channel. Be careful not to get burnt out, but I am excited to see what you create in the future

[@Skrelo]

Appreciate that! Thanks for sticking with me!

It's an advanced level video, but it the idea that a person can make real Minecraft in UE inspirates a lot. Thanks

[@niuage]

Sorry if you mentioned that and I missed it but how do you actually create the mesh? Is it in blueprints or using c++?

[@ketcchhup]

Hi! Can you explain how you use FRunnable or publish your source code?

Nice work mate ! 🎉 Great vid 👍

This is so underrated, you deserve definitely more subs man! Also, keep it up with this Minecraft copy, you could make a video where you like update it and add things Minecraft hasn’t but are should have … You gained a sub!

Appreciate that!

[@xirtus]

please sell this as a template in the unreal marketplace dude!

[@Esc_apist]

Nice work. In general, are Voxels rarely used on the Unrel engine?

[@ashleyanne2056]

For beginners in unreal, this is a neat concept for a "first project". Maybe make another video with a lower-level explanation for those trying to code along?

How did you make the realistic shadows? ProceduralMeshComponent does not support Lumen, and baking the lights would not be a viable option because the blocks can change.

[@lankydog2130]

1:08 it’s now 16x16x384, good video though

[@Skrelo]

Whoops, that's a mistake on my part, it's 384 in the version I made though, thank you!

[@handyman3182]

keep the video grind going!

[@adamkrawczyk9261]

what a coincidence I saw this video because I was planning on remaking minecraft too but in vulkan instead.

[@Skrelo]

I'd love to see something like this done in Vulkan!

[@spacepirate9882]

I'm curious about how you used a custom thread to load the chunks as trying to manipulated Uobject outside of game thread just crash the engine

wrong, they've increased the maximum height, -64 to 320, so it's not 256 anymore.

[@Skrelo]

You're right! My version has the correct height of 384!

[@SCRPXXL]

Hmm 64 views, pretty sure this is going to blow up

[@IberianCraftsman]

Graphic cards will become a second computer connected to the main computer at some point 😂. Actually it would be cool to have multiple motherboards connected, kinda like they do for flexible smarthphones, that way every time you upgrade you get rid of the oldest one and subordinate the newer one to the new one, so any processes that start annoying the main processor get sent to the main processor. Or for maximum performance two motherboards with all the same.
