Overview

Virtual reality is the next step in video games. The incredible thing about VR is that the environment created can be similar to the real world, or it can be fantastical. The only thing holding you back from bringing something exceptional to life is not being able to unlock your creativity. The gaming environment allows you to be within a 3D environment and interact with it for a truly immersive experience.

This course package will teach you to develop your own 2D, 3D and VR games using the Unreal Engine and Unity game development platform. You will learn how to master multi-platform game development techniques using these industry recognised tools, learning to script from scratch and build exciting and revolutionary games.

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.
