Description

Start your journey into game development with one of the most popular game engines around: Unity.

Whether you’re looking to develop a new hobby or take on a new career path, Unity enables you to easily create cross-platform, 2D & 3D games. The engine comes with a powerful set of features that can also be used for a variety of non-game applications, including films, virtual reality, augmented reality, mobile apps, and more. With a large community, affordability, and robust asset store, it has also become a top choice for indie game developers.

In this course, you will explore the core features of the Unity engine, as well as the foundations of working with C# – the language used to operate Unity games. You’ll then be walked step-by-step through creating a simple balloon popper game, which will reinforce your knowledge and can be added to your portfolio. These lessons will provide you with the integral skills needed to pursue your future game projects, and help you to create a variety of games in some of the most popular genres like RPGs, FPS games, strategy games, and more.

You will learn how to:

  • Install and set up Unity projects
  • Manipulate object size, position, and rotation
  • Adjust materials for different aesthetics
  • Code variables, operators, and more with C#
  • Combine various skills to create interactive games
  • Build and deploy your games

… and more!

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
