Description

Game design and development with the Ruby programming language is great fun...learn how in this course.

We'll be using the Gosu library for Ruby to create a simple 2D spaceship game. Follow along and build your own copy!

We'll start out by learning Ruby. You don't need any prior knowledge of programming to take this course, we'll start from the beginning and teach you everything you need.

After we have a solid understanding of Ruby, we'll move into Game programming using the Ruby Gosu Library. Gosu does most of the heavy lifting for us, allowing us to create games quickly and relatively easily!
