🔥 Welcome to EP 143 of the UE5 C++ Survival Game Tutorial Series!

🚧 In this episode of the UE5 C++ Survival Game series, we upgrade the entire project from Unreal Engine 5.5 to **5.6** and work through the update process step-by-step.

Upgrading engine versions can break projects in subtle (and sometimes very loud) ways — so I’ll show you what to look out for, what changed, and how to fix any issues that pop up along the way.

🎮 What You'll See in EP 143:
- Backing up before the upgrade (just in case)
- Updating engine versions in the .uproject and VS solution
- Fixing C++ compile errors after migrating to UE5.6
- Reviewing deprecated features or changes in behavior
- Testing key systems like inventory, UI, and character logic after the switch

💡 This video is perfect for anyone mid-project who's unsure whether it's safe to upgrade — or just wants a preview of the process before trying it themselves.
