So not only will you have a great time learning you'll also get the MOST BANG FOR YOUR BUCK by going away from this course with a lot of tools in your arsenal to continue you journey in the wild west of game development.

Section 1 - Introduction:

Is where we set everything up. I will take you step by step through the process of downloading Unity, installing it and integrating it with Visual studio. We also talk about how you can use this course and take full advantage of everything in it

Section 2 - Magic Shapes 3D - Basics of Unity and C#:

Is where we create the foundation of Unity and C#. If you are new to C3 and Unity and have zero experience this is the perfect place to start as we'll go into everything that we'll need for our future BIG project. You'll learn about the basics of C# such as variables, if statements and arrays while building a fun mini game in Unity to help you get started

Section 3 -  Creating Our Rocket:

We begin the process of creating our incredible rocket. We start of by shaping our rocket and you'll create your rocket you can make it whatever your heart desires. We'll learn to fly our rocket based on players Input. We'll also learn to add audio to our rocket and all of that while delving deeper into Unities system and understanding various concepts in C#

Section 4 - Level Design:

Is where we start creating our levels. Because every great rocket needs a great Space to fly in. We'll understand the basics of Game Design and how industries look at the basics before before creating levels. We'll understand scene management in Unity and C# and have a fully functioning at the end of the section

Section 5 - Advanced Rocket Ship Design:

This is where we take our rocket to the next level. We add a new dimension to our game with a follow cam. We'll learn about an incredible tool of unlimited creativity called Unity's particle system to help us create explosion effects and flames from our rocket. We'll add even more sound effects. And finally add a health bar to our rocket and have extra game mechanics

Section 6 - Advanced Level Design:

With our new rocket we need new spaces for it to fly in. We'll delve deeper into Unity Engine and learn about lighting our game to make some incredible scenery. We'll learn about animations and apply them to our obstacles to make them more dynamic. And finally we'll create a title Menu for our game with interactable buttons to start off our game
