Jon Manning, Secret LabPart of DW17
The Unity game engine is one of the most popular and powerful tools for game development, and in this workshop, we’ll go from nothing to building a complete game.
We’ll be working with the C# programming language, and building games designed for macOS (while also touching on design considerations for iOS as well.) We’ll also discuss best practices for working with Unity in the contexts of engineering, assets workflow, and collaboration.
By the end of workshop, you’ll be cranking out games left, right and centre, and exploring a hugely powerful toolset for interactive content.
