The focus of this class is on 2D game development. Students will be introduced to Unity and become familiar with the structure, layout, and different components of the software. We will build a 2D platform game where players can control the movement of the sprite and direct its interactions with the environment such as colliding with obstacles and hazards. Some examples of game development components we cover include assets, mesh renderer, collider, rigidbody, and animations. In addition to becoming familiar with the Unity editor and workflow, students will also learn how to create C# scripts and do some simple programming. By the end, students will be able to call basic functions, then declare and tweak new variables to modify the results of those functions. Students will gain a foundational knowledge of programming in C# and will feel confident that they can implement new features on their own with this knowledge.Must have taken Unity Intro before enrolling in Unity Part 1 and/or 2.

Learn Unity for kids to build fun 2D and 3D games

Unity Game Development - 1

In part 2 of our Unity Game Development series, students will build their first 3D game in Unity. This involves learning more advanced features of the Unity platform and continues to gain their skills on C# programming. Some specific topics covered include:
- Configuration and navigation of 3D Scene 
- Projectile speed, projectile arc, target collide destroy
- Score - hit/miss, bullseye
- Particle effects, layout design
