Students should have experience using unity or have completed my one of my beginner unity courses before taking this class. Please reach out to me if you are interested in taking this class but haven't taken my beginner unity class yet. 
 
 In this course, students will learn how to create an isometric (2.5D) game using Unity which is a game engine that will allow us to create our game quickly and export it to any device. I will show and explain how to create parts of the game while students follow along. In this course we will be exploring the drag and drop functionality of unity as well as learning how to code in C#. We will be covering basic coding concepts like working with variables, methods, if statements, and the game loop so no coding experience is required. I will also give out a challenge after every class so students can experiment and grow their knowledge. By the end of the course students will have the knowledge of how to create a basic 2.5D game using Unity and C#. Please make sure that you can download the free version of Unity from here: https://store.unity.com/download-nuo
Please download unity before the class starts so you can make sure it will work with your computer/laptop and it will help ensure all students are ready to start the game in the first class instead of waiting for the program to download.

Then they will learn how to load assets like isometric sprites and how to display them properly. Students will also start to create the map for our game. 

Class 3 and 4: 
In these classes we will be completing the map for the game and start adding collision layers, character movements, and start creating the player animations.

Class 5 and 6:
We will complete the character controller and the animation controller and we will also start adding the decoration layer to the map. We will add the pick up items and their functionalities to the game.
