Learn to Code by Making Games Using Unity 5 Developer Course

Walyou Deals - Learn to Code by Making Games - Unity 5 Developer Course

Take advantage of the heavily discounted Unity 5 developer course currently featured on Walyou Deals, and discover a world where coding is anything but boring.

Back in the day, learning programming implied writing a bunch of code lines, compiling the script and running the program. In modern times, however, the line between code and the end result is much thinner, not to mention that developer courses that teach you how to code in various environments are easier to follow now. The perfect example of that is represented by the Unity 5 Developer Course created by Udemy that’s currently listed on Walyou Deals among many other things that could prove appealing for geeks.

The Unity 5 Developer Course helps you master Unity 3D, one of the best development tools for both web-based and mobile games. To achieve that, you need to go over 278 lectures and 49 hours of content. Everything is structured into sections, and the lectures are short, so you’ll even be able to watch them while taking a break from your regular work.An important part of the course is represented by Test Driven Development in C#, a modern language that’s used in more than just making games, so if you’re looking for a career in programming, this could turn out useful. Object-oriented programming and general knowledge of game creation are essential, but at the end of the course you’ll know a lot about these aspects, as well. More than that, you’ll be able to transfer your knowledge to .NET, and several other languages.

While learning all that needs to be learned from this Unity 5 developer course, you also need to practice, since it’s that that makes you perfect. To do so, you will need either a Mac or a PC capable of running Unity 3D, copies of Unity 4.6.3 for early content and Unity 5 for later stages (both downloadable for free straight from Unity), as well as a free copy of Blender.

Helping you along the way will be Ben Tristem, a best-selling instructor, game developer, and online entrepreneur who has a degree in computing from Imperial College London, as well as a physics diploma from the Open University. Both of these are essential for creating games, so you can see why your success is guaranteed. Other people have also exhibited confidence in this online game development school, since the Unity 5 Developer Course was initially crowdfunded on Kickstarter, and the success of the project is proof that many were interested in taking this approach.

This is a time-limited offer, so if you’re interested in learning how to code by making games in Unity 5, head over to Walyou Deals and add the developer course to your cart within the next 10 hours. Since this is a digital product, it will be delivered right after making the purchase. The course is offered in our store for $35, which is 82% off the original price ($197), and likely not something you would want to miss.

Mini TARDIS really is bigger on the inside, thanks to augmented reality (video)

TARDIS

Once in a while we'd come across some cool DIY projects inspired by Doctor Who, the world's longest-running sci-fi TV show, but nothing beats this little TARDIS that would actually make you gasp out the classic line: "It's bigger on the inside!" Greg Kumparak, a former writer of sister site TechCrunch, initially built nothing more than just a convincing model of the iconic blue police box (with a functioning light at the top) by hand, but soon afterwards he wanted to somehow give it an interior as well.

By utilizing the Blender 3D creation suite (which was a first for Kumparak), Unity 3D engine and Qualcomm's Vuforia AR SDK, the result is an Android app that renders the 3D interior atop the random wave-like pattern -- visible once the door's removed -- on the TARDIS in real time (no pun intended). Once you've seen the demo video after the break, you'd probably agree that Kumparak's only one sonic screwdriver away from becoming an honorary Time Lord. For more detail on how and why this project was put together, head over to Kumparak's blog post.

BitGym Motion SDK brings Kinect-style games to Android and iOS, no huge living room required (video)

BitGym Motion SDK brings Kinectstyle gaming to Android and iOS, no massive living room required video

If there's a common barrier to playing with a Kinect controller, it's free space. The sheer amount of necessary distance between sensor and player is fine for suburbanites with expansive living rooms, but not so hot for apartment dwellers. Thankfully, BitGym is doing its best to bring hands-free gaming to small spaces with a new Motion SDK for Android and iOS developers. The kit takes advantage of the front cameras on phones and tablets to track three-axis movement, leans and multiple players without any special hardware -- and without necessarily rearranging the furniture. It's built to work with Unity 3D and most common app code on both platforms, all with a reportedly low overhead for mobile processors. Just don't anticipate any leaps and sidesteps in your loft for the next little while. Although the SDK is ready today, we won't see shipping games built on the motion-friendly framework until early 2013.

Unity 3D for linux gets two playable demos

DNP Unity 3D for linux gets two playable demos

Linux gamers are really just having the time of their lives right now. They've been embraced by indie game devs, by Valve, Epic and the increasingly popular Unity 3D. And, some of these properties aren't quite ready for the big show yet, you can get a taste of what to expect from Unity 4 thanks to a pair of playable demos that have hit the web. AngryBots and Unitroids are both available as standalone executables for your open-source desktop. They're not complete games, but they at least serve as practical demos of the progress being made in porting the gaming engine. They've both got their quirks at the moment, but it's hard not to get excited about the prospect of plummeting through AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! for the Awesome on your Quantal PC. Hit up the source for download links.
