Product is rated as #13 in category Unity

The device or “platform” that a game is developed for and played on has a massive impact on the game development process. In this hands–on course you will explore how to develop a game for a variety of modern platforms, including Web, Windows, Mac OS X, iOS, and Android. While building a complete game, you will learn intermediate and advanced game development techniques in the Unity game engine. By the end of the course, you will understand how to develop, refine, package, and prepare your game for distribution on a variety of game platforms. Particular attention will be given to developing a 2D platformer game that supports multiple forms of input (keyboard/mouse, controller, and touch), works across multiple forms of output (screen size, screen resolution, sound), and performs well on a variety of computing devices. Michigan State University has been advancing the common good with uncommon will for more than 150 years. One of the top research universities in the world, MSU pushes the boundaries of discovery and forges enduring partnerships to solve the most pressing global challenges while providing life–changing opportunities to a diverse and inclusive academic community through more than 200 programs of study in 17 degree–granting colleges.

    The audio quality on these lectures is painful at times. Very bad clipping. With that, this course is a lot of fun to work through. Really provides a nice foundation to Unity topics.

    Amazing course with a lot of useful source for making games using Unity3D. The instructor teaches many important topics such as character and enemy animations, UI design, writing clear scripts and building games for multiple platforms in a very detailed way.

    Excellent course. Combined with the basics of the first course, this was a great opportunity to get a feeling for building something a little bit bigger. For people with zero coding experience, it might be a bit overwhelming, but it’s not really a programming specialization. Combined with the other modules of this specialization this is a good practice to prepare for the capstone project.

    Compared to the other courses in this specialization, I found this one to be more tedious and time consuming. Felt like it did not teach me as much as the other courses, but still was an immense learning experience!

    The course is really helpful for those who want to start developing games in Unity. However, I would suggest to update the course to accommodate newer features like Tilemaps, Composite Collider, Cinemachine, etc., if possible.

    I like the instructor and love the way he narrates for someone like me who gets impatient and just reads through the script while he’s talking then skips ahead. Everything is in the script where I need to click, what I should be looking for, etc. Since I already know how to program too, it helps that I can easily skim and then skip videos I already understand. Instructor is very engaging. My only issue is that some of the videos are outdated (refers to libraries that are obsolete and no longer available). Would have been better if the instructor more regularly updates the videos to reflect changes. That said, the discussion forums have been invaluable in finding work arounds to these issues and have provided answers to every issue I had.
