That is an awesome course!) I finally have some basic game development and script writing skills and know how to make easy games. Everything is explained very good and is easy to understand for those who actually don’t speak English as their mother language. I highly recommend this course, I’m sure you’ll like it!

Really great instruction and the perfect introduction to Unity3d.

Instructions were clear and easy to follow
Vinicius T –
Excellent course. The classes are very well organized and easy to follow. Although Unity has been updated since the course was recorded the resources are still valid. My only suggestion is to include exercises a bit more challenging that require the students to create more original projects rather than creating a “Level 2”.

Nice introduction course.
Miguel A D –
It was pretty helpful and straight forward But just like professor Brian said, it was hard fun!
Sumit K S –
This is a great course for getting introduced to Unity and using some of its available features. You can think of the possibilities. But this course is not a programming course. You will not be taught how to do C# scripting. You will just explore Unity environment, which is worth the time.
An1l C –
Great course for getting start to game development. Everything explained clearly.
Shubhankar M –
loved this course, really broadened my horizons on the thoughts about what goes on behind the game.
Sriram R –
Great course, just that it is done with a much older version of Unity, but all the basics are covered. Felt more could have been done with the coding part for beginners but the course was well done within the time limit . Highly recommended for beginners
Issabella I –
great course! It would’ve been better to go deeper into programming, and instead of just providing students with a ready code and explain it for them, it would be better to make them write the codes. Writing the codes yourself makes you understand them better, fix errors, and just have the code imprinted in your mind.
Joao S –
Good introduction to start getting in contact with the game editor engine.
Martin R –
Enjoyed it. Good beginner course.

Without this course, I wouldn’t be able to design a game so I really learned .

Really enjoyed this course. I just wish it had been updated to use a later version of Unity as quite a lot has changed since the videos were created.

great course
Andres P –
Simple but still with enough depth to get your toes wet in Game Development
Luciano P S –
Good in general, but very focused on the Unity tool. A little outdated.
Gokul E –
Too Good for beginners
Danilo A –
The class gives a very good introduction to the Unity editor and following through it will give students an idea of where to start to create their own games. That being said, I was expecting more exposure to the scripting side of game development.
Connor W –
This course is great, but I’ve had to reset my deadlines for 6 months because how the thing is uploaded doesn’t work how the professors say it should.
mohamed a –
