Game development is one of the most rewarding crafts of modern times.
Not only is making games a wonderful lifelong hobby, but employment
opportunities exist at many levels. Learn to Implement Games with Code
guides you through the development process as you put together a
release-ready game. It is written in a friendly and conversational tone, which
is suitable for a wide audience of aspiring game developers, such as
yourself. You will gain practical, hands-on experience with implementing
game components using code. Gradually, you will build a complete game
that you can be proud of. After finishing this book, you will be prepared to
start making games of your very own design.
Features
• Engage in a hands-on, practical approach to learning
game programming
• Build a release-ready game from start to finish using
C#and Unity
• Improve your game development and programming skills,
whether you re an early computer science student, aspiring
game developer, or professional retraining for a new career.
