Description of the Course
Game Development is the art of creating games and describes the design, development and release of a game. It may involve concept generation, design, build, test and release. While you create a game, it is important to think about the game mechanics, rewards, player engagement and level design.

A game developer could be a programmer, a sound designer, an artist, a designer or many other roles available in the industry.

Game Development can be undertaken by a large Game Development Studio or by a single individual. It can be as small or large as you like. As long as it lets the player interact with content and is able to manipulate the game’s elements, you can call it a ‘game’.

Outcome of Course

● This course is designed for absolute beginners who want to learn and dive into the world of Game Development.
● In this course you’ll be learning about the various components of Game Development incrementally by designing and developing 5 different games.
● All these games are chosen as they target only some of the components while learning, so that at the end of the course you’ll be able to develop a full-fledged game on your own and even let your friends play it by publishing it on various online platforms.
● We’ll be using C# as the programming language through this course for the different game objects that we’ll create. You don't need any prior knowledge of C# to start with this course; we’ll be covering enough parts to get you started.
● Learn C#, from scratch by creating games. No prior programming experience is necessary.
● Become excellent at using the Unity game engine.
● Learn about the Unity UI system.
● Add music and sounds to your game to make it more engaging.
● Build your own games by having proper knowledge of game design and game development.
● Learn how object oriented programming works in practice.
● Create playable game projects - add them to your Resume, or just for your own sense of achievement.
● Finally, learn about how to export your game to various platforms
