Learn to program like a pro with the most used video game engine on the market, UNITY. All the topics in Video Game Programming are examined thoroughly to prepare students for the presentation of their final project. UNITY will allow you to quickly create scalable Video Games of all kinds. You will be able to develop Indy projects, as well as larger ones for different platforms. Projects such as CupHead, Pokémon GO, Super Mario Run, Assassin Creed Indentity, HearthStone and many others have been created with UNITY.
Acquire the techniques and knowledge needed to design the content and rules that shape any video game, board game or serious game. From generating an idea to the production phase and launch.
Game Design is the initial phase of Concept, Mechanics and Prototyping of a Video Games and a Game Designer is the Architect who will orchestrate all its foundations, the one who will somehow invent and develop the whole game and make it work.
We will learn to analyze the systems and mechanics that make up your favorite games. You will develop your own functional prototypes and learn to create an environment where players can immerse themselves for hours.
