How to Make a Retro Style 3D FPS in the Godot Game Engine (Udemy.com)

An excellent Godot FPS course with incredibly clear explanations and a very professional structure. The developer explains even complex systems in a way that feels intuitive and easy to follow. You can really tell a lot of passion and real-world experience went into this project. The pacing is great, the code is clean, and the final result feels like something genuinely production-ready. One of the best resources I’ve found for learning FPS development in Godot. Highly recommended.

This is the best course I've taken related to game development in Godot (It's probably not for beginners since you have to have some knowledge of how to use Godot) It gives you all the knowledge about the basic structure of a game in the BoomShooter genre. It's super modular and you can easily modify new mechanics based on your idea. The only problem is that sometimes the font in the code editor is super small and someone like me (I wear glasses) had a hard time following it. From there on out 11/10

It's a really good course, it respects your intelligence and ability to understand, it's not so good for complete beginners, but you get to observe a professional work at their own pace making a project. If you've ever learned on a job through shadowing, particularly with someone who takes their time to explain what they're doing and why they're doing it, it will be a similar experience to that. Recommend to any aspiring gamedevs who finds most Godot learning resources to be too beginner-friendly for your preexisting understanding of coding.

Covers a really great amount of content. It is quite fast paced so I don't know if I would recommend this to a beginner, however if you have already done a decent amount of gdscripting, then this is great. A small annoyance is that this is the 2nd last video in the series and is considered 'halfway' by Udemy. Not an issue caused by Miz, however if you are wanting to get the certificate from completing this course then just keep that in mind. All of that to say that this is a great course!

The critiques from other reviews regarding poor pacing and presentation are very fair. But there are not a lot of FPS tutorials out there and the pacing works in favor of getting you through the course quickly if you have prior programming experience. This course was fun and I am confident I have the basic skills to start my own FPS project. Be warned that the course uses Godot 3 but Godot 4 has since been released. You will have to refer to the official upgrade guide as well as the API documentation a couple of times if you insist on using Godot 4. If you are new to Godot, I would recommend following the course in Godot 3 and then following the upgrade guide afterward. The project is simple enough that it is barely affected by the API changes and your new skills will translate.

Overall, if you want to create an FPS in Godot, this is a really good start, but there's some caveats I wish I knew going in. There's a lot of great content, but not enough actual "teaching" or explaining the "why" we're doing certain things. You get to see one way to create a retro FPS, which is what I wanted, but I didn't feel like I learned as much as I could have. The course is fine if you already know a lot of Godot's concepts, but not if you're trying to get into this your first time. You'll get lost really quickly. If you've done other online courses, many have a "try it yourself" section where you get shown a concept, get time to complete an exercise, and then a walk-through of the answer. There's none of that in this course. He starts a lesson and just goes without telling you what's going on or why. Occasionally he'll explain what's happening, but usually he doesn't. However, by the end, you do get a great base for an FPS. I started this course after having thoroughly explored Godot's documentation and its getting started guides, and I found a bit to be desired in terms of how he's structured the code. He does not follow the GDScript style guide, which, as a web developer, I found to be really frustrating. I want to learn and see best practices from an expert. Instead, I had to spend time restructuring, renaming, and reorganizing files. This was still good practice with the style guide, so I can't be too mad. Just know that he's not following best practices!

its easy to follow and the indtructer provided all materials

Very, straight to the point, his voice wasn't annoying, explained everything.

This is the best Godot course that I have taken on Udemy so far. The instructor takes the time to develop a scalable, component-based system for the game. Instead of just cramming everything into one player script, he shows us how to add and remove nodes for functionality like moving, character control, attacking, etc. If you have had trouble making more than just a demo with Godot and don't know game design patterns very well, take this course.

nice

Its a good match because i love learning game development, and working with game engines

Instructor is great, he gets straight to the point gives you everything you need to start on a FPS in Godot. Would highly recommend if you are already familiar with Godot and looking to try 3D!
