Game Development using Corona SDK in 2016 with ASO & Ads (Udemy.com)

At first it was moving fast and didn't appear to have what I was looking for, but after watching it 1/3 of the way through this course is super educational for many different reasons. I like seeing his style with writing code and variable naming conventions. I like seeing all the functions and variables necessary to run this game. It's a good course... gotta follow along. The bonus material is great!

This course really took you from beginning steps of how to start creating a mobile game, and took you through all the steps you will run into to complete it and upload it. Everything needed for someone with no experience to stat coding. What i loved most is the examples on how to create your menu and pause screens as well. Other vides i have seen just assume you can figure it out.

You create a good little game with some excellent functionality. If you have already done some programming and are looking to learn about Corona / Lua then it is perfect. For a complete beginner, you would probably find it a bit tricky to understand exactly what you are doing. A little knowledge about Programming and Graphics concepts and Corona is assumed by the level this is pitched at.

I'm not really impressed. Some of the videos need to be updated (you see him making mistakes, and retrying with same pitch; this clearly should have been edited out) Also, a lot of watching him type. Could use more explanation and less typing

I liked the course, because it helped me get an overview on how I could put together a game, thank you for that. However, some key steps where missing, and just the end results were shown, like creating your sprites (showing how to use TextureWrapper would have been great), creating icons (also, for example appicontemplate.com), these would have been useful for a newbie like me. Also I hope in future courses other best practices will also be used, like avoiding globals and using more readable variable names, proper whitespace etc.

Очень добротно сделанный курс для начального ознакомления с Corona SDK, сразу после прохождения курса рекомендую поглубже закопаться в форум и гайды с официального сайта. Для прохождения курса достаточно среднего знания английского, так как автор очень подробно (иногда излишне) разжевывает каждое свое действие. + одно из первых встреченных описаний работы с Graphics 2.0 + курс построен на последней версии Corona SDK

I am editing this review because previously i was a bit hasty in my remarks regarding late replies by the author of the course. (and i am really very sorry for that ) The course in itself is really great. Videos are a bit blurry but totally understandable. Helped me a lot in understanding and moving forward with corona and my game development startup ... i just hope it works for me .... and Thanks Daniel for your reply .... Hope this helps :)

I recently decided to begin making mobile apps. I was still unsure if I should go with corona of another SDK. After choosing corona, I found this course. This course solidified my decision in working with corona. The course is very thorough and engaging. The instructor's voice is very clear and energetic. He got me pumped up to begin my app career! He never used "ugh or umm" throughout the entire course which was very professional. The part I enjoyed the most is how he zooms in on the code so you can see exactly what and how he is typing. I highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to begin their mobile app development career!

Its really a very good chance to learn developing games from this course. It makes so simple to develop a game, its really amazing. its like developing games with fun, so easy. The Instructor makes it very simple to learn how to develop a game with so ease. Adding short but sweet video ads are really great for earning cash.‏ Its really good for earning money via the game.

I'm really happy with this course, I came in with a little bit of knowledge of Lua & had installed Corona SDK, but didn't know much. There were a couple sections I watched twice to really grasp everything, but in the end I have a very good understanding of the process and am looking forward to creating my first game! On a side note, the monetization portion is worth way more than the cost of the course itself. It's applicable to any app game development you would do.
