About this course:

Building on the foundation established in DESMA X 479.7K Unity I: 3D Game Design and Game Engines, students will dive in and create games, apps, and experiences with more depth and complexity. While the first course focused on the Unity editor and only touched upon programming, this course provides a full foundation for scripting in Unity with C#, and programming in general. Students will learn how to handle a plethora of interesting tasks in game development, including systems design (abilities, character progression, enemy AI), saving/loading player progress, and basic networking. We'll also touch upon the latest and greatest Unity features, including Scriptable Render Pipelines, VFX Graph, Shader Graph, and more. Students will come away with a solid grasp of object-oriented programming principles, Unity specific design patterns, and a portfolio of small games and apps.
