TOP REVIEWS FROM GAME DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT 2: 2D PLATFORMER
Absolutely love it, wish I could have realized Game development was my true calling years ago!
Content and course design are excellent. Compare to any famous books and University.
The teaching video is also high quality knowledge in terms of knowledge and technology.
Helpful and progressive - but it is worth reading ahead a little in the final project - youn start it early but it isnt handed in til the end!
It was overall a good course. I would have loved it better if we had made more things from scratch.
