Overview
Class Central Tips
This course guides you from the fundamentals of Unity C# scripting to advanced game development techniques. You'll begin by installing Unity and learning core C# concepts like variables, loops, conditionals to control game objects. Each section builds upon the last, ensuring a solid understanding through practical examples and real-world applications, laying the foundation for more advanced programming topics.
As you progress, you’ll explore Unity-specific C# features, such as physics, object interactions, and custom functions for smooth game controls. You'll work with key Unity components like Transform, GetComponent, and various event functions to make your game objects interact naturally in the game world. The course also covers object-oriented programming (OOP) concepts like inheritance, polymorphism, and encapsulation, critical for aspiring game developers.
By the end, you'll put your skills to the test by building full games: a 2D Candy Catch game and a 3D platformer. You'll apply everything you've learned from setting up environments to creating user interfaces and managing complex player interactions. The course concludes with mobile development and version control, preparing you to deliver professional-quality games with scalable code and effective project management.
Ideal for beginners in game development and Unity users seeking to improve C# skills. No Unity/C# experience is needed but basic coding knowledge helps.

In this course, you’ll begin by mastering Unity's NavMesh system to create intelligent agents capable of navigating complex environments. You'll learn how to handle challenging situations like moving agents across ramps, narrow places, and stairs, as well as making them jump using off-mesh links. These essential AI skills will allow you to develop more realistic and dynamic game worlds. Next, you'll shift focus to mobile game development, where you'll learn how to build an Android game from start to finish. You'll explore critical mobile concepts like handling touch inputs, utilizing accelerometers, and implementing responsive UI elements. This hands-on section ensures you're ready to create mobile games that feel natural and intuitive for users. Finally, you’ll dive into the full cycle of 3D game development. From setting up game levels to managing score systems, particle effects, and animations, this course guides you through every step. By the end, you'll know how to manage complex projects using version control and confidently publish your completed game on multiple platforms. This course is perfect for intermediate to advanced Unity users who have a solid understanding of C# programming. Experience with Unity’s basics is recommended, but no prior knowledge of AI or mobile development is required.

Take your Unity development skills to the next level with this intermediate C# scripting course. You'll begin by exploring essential object-oriented programming (OOP) concepts like classes, objects, and inheritance, helping you build a solid foundation in clean and efficient coding. You'll also dive into core Unity-specific scripting techniques, learning how to initialize objects, manage properties, and utilize powerful constructs like enums and polymorphism to create flexible game components. In the following sections, you'll apply these concepts in real-world gaming scenarios. You'll develop reusable scripts that streamline gameplay, from managing player movement and object spawning to handling user interface elements like score and life counters. Throughout the course, you'll enhance your coding practices by learning about method overloading, coroutines, and the effective use of namespaces and attributes within Unity. By the end of the course, you'll have built a complete 2D game, while also creating scripts that can be reused across multiple projects. Whether it’s setting up sprites or coding game-over mechanics, this course ensures you develop a strong ability to structure and maintain code that simplifies future Unity development. This course is designed for intermediate Unity developers who already have a basic understanding of C# and want to advance their skills. Familiarity with Unity’s interface and foundational programming concepts is recommended before starting.

Game development is an exciting and growing field, and this course offers a perfect introduction for those new to the world of Unity and C# scripting. The journey begins with downloading and setting up Unity, followed by a deep dive into C#—the coding language that powers Unity's dynamic game elements. You'll quickly understand the structure of a C# script, use variables, and implement key functions like "Update" to make game objects respond to player input. The course then progresses into more advanced C# scripting concepts, introducing conditional statements, loops, and arrays—tools that allow you to create complex behaviors and control game logic. By learning how to move objects, detect collisions, and interact with physics, you’ll build the foundational skills needed to create interactive and engaging gameplay. You’ll also explore essential Unity features, such as accessing components, instantiating objects, and handling user inputs like the keyboard and mouse. In the final section, you’ll dive into the core programming concepts that enable you to control the game world. You'll use Unity’s built-in functions to manage game objects, manipulate scenes, and handle real-time events like shooting and collisions. By the end of the course, you'll be ready to create your own dynamic games, complete with player controls, physics interactions, and scene management, equipping you with the essential knowledge to launch your game development career. This course is designed for aspiring game developers, beginners with no prior experience in Unity or C#, and programmers who want to apply their coding skills in a game development environment. Basic computer literacy is required; no coding experience is necessary.
