AI help for Unreal projects with real design and architecture context.

Unreal projects can cross actors, components, subsystems, C++ files, assets, editor setup, design constraints, and team conventions. Aura helps make those dependencies part of the AI workflow.

Use Aura for implementation planning, debugging, architecture reviews, and GDD-aligned gameplay work when the answer needs to fit an existing Unreal project.

Aura Core supports unlimited local projects and GDDs. Choose the optional 100-request Gemini trial, Personal BYOK, or prepaid Aura Balance for eligible managed models.

What this workflow keeps visible

See the context Aura can use, the decisions that still need your judgment, and the checks to review before work changes your game.

Architecture

Actor/component boundaries, reusable gameplay behavior, subsystems, and project rules.

Implementation

Selected files, C++ context, editor setup notes, and affected systems.

Design intent

GDD mechanics, interaction rules, enemy behavior, progression, and tuning constraints.

Review notes

Risks, manual tests, editor setup required after code changes, and safe next steps.

Why Unreal AI needs context

A useful Unreal answer often starts with the question of where behavior belongs. Should it live on an actor, a component, a subsystem, a data asset, or a tool A prompt alone usually cannot answer that for a real project.

Aura is meant to keep design context, project rules, selected files, and architecture decisions close to the work so the plan fits the project instead of inventing a new structure.

Example Unreal workflow

Prompt: "Plan the interaction system from this GDD section and keep it compatible with our existing actor/component split."

A strong answer should identify affected systems, propose a first implementation step, call out editor setup, and explain risks before code changes land.

Where the Unreal workflow helps

Use Aura when the answer depends on actor/component ownership, subsystems, selected C++ files, editor-authored assets, GDD rules, or manual Unreal setup.

Use the setup docs for the supported plugin path and the Security page for the exact local, provider, and optional cloud data flow.

FAQ

Can Aura help with Unreal Engine projects?

Yes. Aura supports Unreal workflows through its Hub and plugin system and can help reason about project context, design docs, architecture rules, debugging, and implementation planning.

Is Aura only for Unreal C++?

No. Aura is designed for broader Unreal project workflows, including design alignment, project rules, debugging, and implementation planning across the context you connect.

How does Aura handle Unreal project data?

Aura is local-first by default. Core project context stays on your device. Pro cloud continuity and Cloud Loops use cloud storage or processing only when you enable them, and your content is not used for training.
