Tim Buchalka's Learn Programming Academy
Games developers are in huge demand, with many new and exciting opportunities becoming available to programmers who understand the technology.
Are you looking to become a games programmer, but don’t know where to start?
Maybe you are looking for a really comprehensive course on games development, but cannot decide which course to take.
Maybe you have some skills with LibGDX or another games framework, but want to create game using Kotlin
Whatever the reason, this course will teach you how to become a master games programming, using LIBGDX.
Keep in mind that LIBGDX is cross platform, meaning that you can then move games to other platforms
No previous experience is necessary. Goran Lochert, your course instructor is an expert games developer, who has worked on many games in many frameworks. He is also an official Oracle Java certified developer, and an official contributor to LIBGDX, the games framework used in this course to create games.
His skills and experiences with LibGDX are second to none.
As a result, you are learning from one of, if not the most experienced Java and Kotlin games developer on Udemy, meaning you can be assured that not only will you learn how to create your own games by following along in this course, but you will also learn the right way to create your game code.

practical and useful advice

Good course, disappointing that it is not yet complete however, some key aspects in videos missing towards the end of the course which we are told will be covered at the beginning. Hopefully this content will be added soon so I can give the course a better rating.

I was expecting the part where the trainer explains multiple GameScreens (like the menu and options).
Daniel Ploskonka –
kotlin explained in well and in detail

The pace was very slow in the beginning, but I *really* came to love it over time. It is definitely the best course I’ve taken on Udemy. I had somewhat low expectations, because my needs were so specific (Kotlin + LibGDX + Android); I figured beggars can’t be choosers. But the course has definitely exceeded my expectations. Goran is *so* thorough; as I said above, I mistook that for a slow pace, but once we moved into unfamiliar territory, I was so glad to have his thoroughness. He covers *everything*, from Kotlin basics to programming concepts like reflection and of course to the details of LibGDX. He even spends time showing some cool IntelliJ shortcuts. (I normally use VS Code, a very different IDE.) One last great thing: necessarily, there is a huge jump from here is how to do basic Kotlin stuff to here is the LibGdx framework with all its magic. He doesn’t explain all of LibGDX magic up front, and instead lets us get a few cool things done, like creating keystroke listeners. Then he backs up a bit and explains a bit of the magic, once your curiosity starts to peak. Kudos to Goran! Awesome job!

First thing: Kotlin and the ntellIj IDE are an amazing, and in my mind trail blazing set of tools, just no doubt about it! Second the course general strategy is simple, elegant, and effective. Of course there follows a ‘however’ related to the actual execution, several of them: 1. Some of the videos were long and often very involved, 2 3 4 files, dozens of changes, and IF ANYTHING WAS NOT PERFECTLY identical then a student can find himself in some pretty strange situations. Good for learning but also frustrating with the heavy accent, and not being able to see the entire screen. (As source code was included there is a way to get restarted….) 2. The written transcript is not English, it would be helpful, if it were retyped to use the actual words intended. Generally the heavy accent was educated and not unpleasant but at crucial moments it was just very hard to understand and the written transcript could have been a help. Overall, for the money and time spent I am just very happy to have been able to work my way entirely though this material and have landed with a warm and fuzzy feelling toward Kotlin and IntelIJ and the libGDX (and friends) eco system. Finally, and this I was just so amazed at, I once became very frustrated around lesson 54 or so with my code not working even while (seemingly) matching 100% after multiple checks and much time spent. I documented my problem to the instructor, left to make a cup of coffee,and when I came back there was a general solution suggestion by the instructor who stuck with me for 3 4 5 exchanges including a link to a zipped copy of my entire project file system. It came down to a single weirdness where the option I needed was not showing on my IDE for some strange reason. I ended up restarting the project then updating the files from the resources provided and I was off and running again. Bottom line is that even these time consuming and frustrating exceptions were important experiences and forced me to think about all the tools and resources fit together to provide what has to be about the most powerful tool and language combination on the planet.

Very Good course, I’ve learned a lot and I like his accent !!

The course is fine. But he needs to explain things more that is something he lacks.
Shawn Sherwood –
This course is only half done and has basically been abandoned by the creator. Don’t be fooled by the last update date, nothing is new here as originally promised.

A few videos were not on here, for example he mentioned that he made a video on how to download the JDK which was not on there.
