About the Course

If you love games and want to learn how to make them, then this course will start you down that path. Making games is a creative and technical art form. In this course you will familiarize yourself with the tools and practices of game development and well as the process. You will get started developing video games using industry standard game development tools, including the Unity 2020 game engine. At the end of the course you will have completed two hands-on projects, including an Intro to Unity project and a 2D Shooter game, and will be able to leverage an array of game development techniques to create your own basic games....

This course is a great way to get into game development and programming as a whole. The concepts are easy to understand and you finish with a solid project that gives you a sense of accomplishment.

Excellent introduction to Game Design and Development! I already feel that I can do so much with Unity, even when I know there is still a lot lot more to learn, but this was a fantastic start!

A good course for learning the basics of navigating Unity. The final project has highly unrealistic expectations for what's offered in the course. There is very little introduction to C#, and the Unity overview hardly covers enough functionality to fulfill the "significant changes" requested in the project requirements. Doing the final project well with the only the knowledge this course offers as a basis is nearly impossible. That said, it's a good course for getting comfortable with Unity superficially.

It would be even better if there were explanations provided for why certain things are done the way they are, or if there were more guided modifications for the student to make to the provided Assets and Scripts.

I am not going to continue this course anymore. here is the reason

1. everything you see is the 2020 unity build. so if you have the latest version, some scripts won't work. especially Ui page script.

2. all the ui prefabs do not work unless you have the same version as they have. instead of providing prefabs, they should have taught us how to make prefabs ourselves. only told what it does.

3. this course is a youtube tutorial except there are better videos you can find on youtube.

4. peer assessment is true burden for this course. it creates uneccerasy presure to finish the project as they expect us we know every about unity and C#

5. The importance of C# is here but no menton of how it works. i had was bunce of youtube videos what i'm doing wrong.

honestly, i did learn many thing but thosething i can learn from youtube.
