This course utilises the industry standard video game development engine Unity and is perfect for an individual looking to dip their toe into C# coding or looking to broaden their skills in digital media. Focused predominately on the creation of a 2D space invaders game the course covers the basic layout of Unity, creating a player character, firing a weapon, basic enemies, scoreboards and 3D terrain creation.
An understanding of Unity’s layout and core tools, 2D games development and 3D games development as well as basic Object orientated coding principals in C#. You will learn the basic Unity layout, the hierarchy, project, inspector, scene and game menus. Learn to use Unity’s default tools and premade assets to create a piece of 3D terrain and a game character.
Then go on to build upon Unity3D with a UI, interactable objects, particle emitters, sound emitters, physics, scene transitions, importing own assets, skyboxes and an introductory session into coding structure. With 2D Unity Development you will then learn how certain components are different but the same, the difference between 2D and 3D physics – the end objective will be to make space invaders the game via 5 C# scripts.
