What is C# and Unity?

The Unity Game Engine provides a graphical interface to streamline the process of creating animations and physics into games. The engine’s skills lie in its ability to create seamless 2D and 3D environments. The engine has been used to create many popular games such as: Among Us and Pokémon Go.

Learning Unity will upskill students in the game development environment, while teaching them the coding language C#. C# is maintained by Microsoft and used for creating websites and programs in a cloud environment.

Our Program

This class will give students an introduction on how the C# (pronounced csharp) language is used, then setting them up to apply that knowledge in the Unity Game Engine.

The Unity course will use a game development process to teach students how to design and program games.

Students completing this course will gain confidence in participating in community run Game Jams such as the biggest Game Jam run by Itch.io https://gmtk.itch.io – These are events which ask participants to create a game based on an agreed theme, where anyone in the world can participate.

To master the concepts and techniques, we recommend that students study at the class for 1 – 2 years, or until their skills are ready to move on to the next level.
