In this comprehensive 3dmotive course for beginners, instructor Alan Thorn explores how to get started making games using the Unity engine. In just a few hours, you’ll learn how to design and build games easily with professional-grade development tools; no previous experience required. Design levels, define behaviours and create playable experiences that are fun for everybody as you learn game development software, step by step. This course explores Unity fundamentals, such as how to create interesting worlds, how to animate and configure 3D Objects, and how to construct a game for desktop PCs. Plus, we’ll see how to import custom content and models (including your own 3D models) from external tools directly into your games. In addition, we’ll see more advanced features too, including object physics, NPC intelligence, post-processing camera effects; particle systems and lot’s more. By the end of this course, you’ll be strongly positioned to create interesting games independently, and you’ll be ready to tackle more advanced challenges that push your knowledge to the next level.
