Most Unreal and UEFN Maps Fail for the Same Reason - Micah Berninghausen
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of The Creative Juice Podcast, I sit down with GameDevMicah to break down what it actually takes to push Unreal Engine and UEFN beyond the obvious.
We dig into real world optimization mistakes, common performance traps creators fall into, and how systems like instancing, GPU workflows, and destruction can scale when used correctly. Micah also shares why building in public matters, how devlogs can accelerate learning and trust, and what most creators misunderstand about performance in Unreal.
If you are building in Unreal Engine or UEFN and want to create more ambitious experiences without breaking your game, this episode is a must listen.
