The Democratisation of Games Development
Creative Bloq | Epic Games’ Unreal Engine 5 is transforming indie game development by providing powerful, flexible tools that enable small teams to work efficiently and creatively, closing the gap with AAA game development. Liverpool-based Starlight Games used UE5 to create House of Golf 2, leveraging real-time development, seamless collaboration, and advanced lighting features to produce over 130 levels. The game demonstrates how modern games engines such as UE5 have the potential to support unique, innovative projects beyond big-budget titles, overcoming game industry challenges, bringing diverse, creative visions to life.
