Summary  
This chapter demonstrates how to implement a reusable EndGame function that switches the input mode to UI-only, creates and displays a winning UI widget, pauses the game, and resets the input mode on level start, while also showing how to add and position a crosshair image in the HUD.

General domain of usage  
Game development

In this chapter we will take yet another step towards finishing up the game by creating the `Winning` blueprints once the conditions. In addition, in the video below, I have also added a crosshair to the **HUD** widget so aiming is easier.

In the previous chapter, we set up the logic for **winning the game** and as we saw in the video, we just used a **PrintString** to make sure that our code is working as it should. Now, we want to make a new function in the `GameMode` that we can call instead of **PrintString**. This function sets the input mode to UI only, creates `WPB_Winning` and pauses the game.

In addition to this, we want to make sure that once we reopen the `FirstPersonMap`, we set the input mode back to **Game Mode Only**. We do this in our level blueprint.

In this course, you'll create a thrilling FPS game where you face waves of enemies in an arena. Your goal is to eliminate all enemies in each wave within a set time. Survive three intense waves, and you'll be greeted with a victory screen offering the option to restart or exit. Watch your health bar if it hits zero or time runs out, it's game over. This course will equip you with essential game development skills, resulting in a dynamic and engaging FPS game. Ready for the challenge? Start your game dev journey now!

In this section you will learn how to install Unreal Engine and navigate in its UI.

In this section we will continue with looking into the blueprints. Blueprints are at the heart of everything that happens in Unreal Engine and are what we will be working on mostly in this course.

What is a first-person shooter without some enemies? In this section we will set up the enemy blueprints.

Level design is one of the most important parts of any game. A good level not only creates a suitable environment but also considers the timing of events in creating an enjoyable experience. Coupled with that, a good level tells a story without using words.

Widgets, UMGs, and UI; they are all basically the same thing really. In this section, we will take a look at how to make menus and HUDs using widgets. We also take a look at how to add SFX to our widgets and blueprints.

We are almost done with our game at this point! In this section we are going to set up a system to increase the difficulty of the game as we proceed! Lastly, we are going to set up the winning and gameover logic for our game.

Packaging for Windows is very easy in Unreal Engine. In this final and short section, we adjust the final bits, and then package our game!
