einfach top. Danke fr den Kurs, auch wenn es manchmal recht fortgeschritten geht und man gute C# Kenntnisse bentigt.
Die Vorstellung von Gimp wre auch sinnvoll gewesen, weil Gimp kostenlos ist oder Photoshop extrem teuer ist.

By Jacob Rail on 11/18/2020

I have been programming for several years, and how this course approaches the programming aspects i do not really like. However, the pointers on how to make 2D art was helpful, and i will defiantly be using it for a prototyping / mock-up design. In short, if you are looking for a single course that will make you a Unity expert this may not be the best choice. But if you are looking for more courses to make you a better developer, give this one a shot!

Excellent course, well-done guys. The good thing on this course that you learn a lot of skills, tricks, and techniques, and finally, you will get a playable game that is entirely created by the student. Some items have been explained quickly but presented remarkably well; expect to spend some time on research, but this is not bad. I have completed the course and created a working game without posting even one question, completed in one week. I also liked the course as it's short and sweet, compared to some lengthy courses of useless theories ending with no results. I've learned many C sharp concepts, plus an excellent knowledge of how to draw 2D characters and animate them in unity. I loved the course.
