Description

In this game creation course, my brother and I will bring you through the process of making a 2D platformer game using Unity and C#.

This is an all-time classic genre, a blank canvas to let your imagination run wild!

-----------------------------

We'll begin by learning how to make a solid player controller, with wall jumping and sliding. Then we will go on a fun journey bringing to life unique enemy characters such as a shooting warlock, a flying bat that avoids obstacles, and a patrolling goblin! So you can expect some simple but fun tutorials on AI.

You'll learn how to make moving platforms, a flexible camera, and weapon pickup and switching.

If you've ever wondered how to make an easy unlockable level system, then that's covered too!

Get ready to dive into the universe of particle effects and game juice, learning how to make attacks and jumps more satisfying with sound effects and screen shake for example!

I'll share some useful and easy to implement tips and tricks to make your platformer game environments shine with soft overlays for lighting, parallax to add depth to the world, little trees and grass tufts which move underfoot and post-processing!

Great course! As an intermediate game and an experienced C# programmer but a noob with Unity, I found this course exactly what I was looking for. Helps me understand how to use Unity to build the game I've envisioned... I would not have known where to begin without Noa and Liam's help!!

Hey, I'm Noa Calice, an indie game developer having made a dozen games both 2D and 3D using Unity and C#. I've recently completed my first commercial game: The Dreadful Whispers which can be played on Steam.

I'm also a teacher, having made hundreds of tutorials on my Youtube channel called Blackthornprod, where I teach aspiring game developers how to use Unity, code and make awesome game art and animations.

I've developed a strong passion for teaching and sharing my knowledge with others, I want to help you the best I can acquire the skills you need to bring your unique ideas to life!

Join me on this adventure!
