Veteran game designer Christopher Orth takes you through every step of building your own first-person 3D game from scratch: from writing a game design document to whiteboxing a level the way AAA game companies do it and implementing game systems with basic AI - all without coding!
You'll be using the super-popular (and free!) Unity game engine together with the visual scripting tool Playmaker and the 3D modelling app of your choice to build an interactive first-person game level. Therefore, the people who'll get most out of it are those who already have some working knowledge of 3D modelling and have dabbled with Unity and Playmaker before a little and want to take their skills further. However, even absolute beginners can complete the course successfully.
You get:
More than 10 hours of high-quality lectures
3 hours of bonus video content: whitebox reviews and time-lapsed speed-modelling of hours of game level development
free access to the student version of the awesome Playmaker Unity plugin
downloadable exercise files to follow along (utility textures, 3D models, ready-made health systems, etc)
Everything you need to make your very own 3D first-person game prototype!
What are the requirements?
You'll need the free Unity game engine installed on your machine
You'll also need a 3D modelling app. We recommend Maya LT, Silo or 3D Cheetah, but any 3D app will do, even Blender if you know what you're doing!
Knowing about the basics of Playmaker is a plus but not required. Check out Hutong Games' YouTube channel to get up and running quickly
What am I going to get from this course?
Over 73 lectures and 10 hours of content!
quickly test a game idea without writing a line of code
make a complete 3D game prototype using the Unity game engine and a 3D modelling app like Maya
learn about creating AI, game levels and how to run play tests
What is the target audience?
This course is meant for beginners of all ages who preferably have already watched a few Unity tutorials and know the basics of getting around.
We have had students aged 10 all the way to people in their fifties take this course and have had rave reviews from our students
Die-hard programmers who don't like using visual scripting tools like Playmaker should probably look elsewhere
