Style and Approach
In this fast-paced course, you will learn how to use the latest version of Unity with relevant and practical examples. While most beginner-level Unity courses do a decent job of teaching some basic concepts, they do so in a boring and theoretical way. Even when they show a game example, it tends to be at best a very basic number-guessing or visual-novel game. In this course, you will create a nice-looking 3D game with a first-person perspective. After completing the course, you will have a product you can actually be proud of.
