Course Description
Did you grow up playing Super Smash Bros? Are you a fan of classic Nintendo characters? Growing up, I loved playing Super Smash Bros. Melee and always wanted to know how fighting games were made. Now, I make games professionally for a living and have a deep understanding of what goes into making all types of games, including fighting games.
This course is meant to teach you how to build a full fighting game in Unity, even if you are a beginner or have never used Unity before. By the end of this course, you will have a full Super Smash Bros. style game in Unity that you built from the ground up. I will teach you how to develop and animate the following characters using the sprite sheets that I created and provide with this course: Donkey Kong, Mario, Pikachu, Samus, Ice Climbers, Captain Falcon, Bowser, Link, and Sonic.
Each character will have three attacks and be able to jump. Donkey Kong will feature his classic down smash that shakes the camera and sends enemies flying into the air. Mario will throw flaming mushroom projectiles. Pikachu will feature his classing lighting attack, zapping the opposition. Samus will have his charge beam that lets the user build up power and then release a sci-fi blast. The Ice Climbers will be able to freeze enemies and tag team their way to victory. Captain Falcon will use his Falcon Punch to blast enemies. Bowser will be able to spew fire which we will create using Unitys particle system. Link will have the ability to fire arrows and throw bombs at enemies. Sonic will be able to turn into Super Sonic and blast enemies with energy.
This course will teach you how to create 4 way battles between these characters with a user and 3 CPU characters. Each of the 9 characters can be used by the player or the CPU. We are going to code the enemy AI from the ground up so that we can play against the computer, who will fight back and try to knock us off the stage!
As we build this course, you are going to gain a wealth of knowledge in the different areas of the Unity game engine. Some of the core game development techniques this course will teach you are:
Working with 2D graphics and sprite sheets and building character animations from themUse the Animation and Animator components to build finite state machines that transition between player attacksCustomize the mouse cursor with custom hand graphics that let the user drag and drop indicators to select characters and point and click to choose levels.
Object-oriented C# scripting techniques for writing clean, re-usable code.
Adding a camera shake for Donkey Kongs ground-and-pound move as well as other special effects for other characters move setsLearn about the different UI components and how they can be used together to build in-game menus and selection screens that efficiently and intuitively respond to user input.
Use powerful programming techniques like Actions and Coroutines to control timing and execution of code and handle attack logicWork with Unitys physics system to allow for interactions between characters and the environment.
Turn your ideas into code using C# with Unity and build up a set of skills that you can use to build other fighting games and showcase them in your portfolio.
By the end of this course, you will have a full game project you developed from the ground up! You will also have some more C# tips and tricks that you can add to your arsenal. If you want to learn game development or are aspiring to build a career in the game industry, then this course is for you!
Who this course is for:
Anyone excited about building a Super Smash Bros. style fighting gameAnyone that wants to improve their Unity and C# skillsBeginners that want to build a full game step-by-step and have something cool that they can play and learn from
