The instructor extremely enthusiastic and passion which is really rare to see but amazing. Thank you so much for teaching this course it really helped to kick start my interest in game development :)

I took up this course as a refresher after a long hiatus, but this would be amazing if I was an absolute beginner too! Kudos to Dr. T and I'm excited to complete the rest of the specialization! 😍😍🤩🤩

I haven't done yet the successive courses, however, this course alone is pretty useless in my opinion. It goes fast on some very important concepts of both C# programming and Unity, as object oriented programming. I think that for people new to programming this must result very difficult. However, most of the concepts explained are clear enough and it gives a quick start if someone wants to approach Unity fast.
I think it deserve a try to evaluate if it suits each one needs and knowledge.

the course itself is alright. but this is not an introduction to c#. the teacher knows alot! but that also means you end up with alot that can be distracting if you dont really know the language. not to mention showing you how to do something wrong first happens often which leads to learning the wrong thing first.. and it takes much more time to work out untraining such information.

I learned a lot following this course, but would not have been able to get through it without my husband to help me. I felt like some big knowledge leaps where made even though the course is supposed to be written/made for absolute beginners. The knowledge I do have after finishing however will be super useful as I start trying to program more games.

Overall the course does a decent job of presenting programming principles in a simple way, but sometimes too simple. It feels like content was purposely cut out to avoid "scaring off" learners. Some assignments were poorly explained, and (as usual in Coursera) outdated, resulting in considerable time wasted.

The Course was Overall Good but it will be more better when Instructor should help us to just not to explain some prewritten codes but to do it in the video by writing them and give the reasons while he is studying. Means write code from scratch don't show us the prewritten code and explain.

A little outdated since MonoDevelop is now completely deprecated with the current version of Unity as well as Visual Studio being in the 2019 build instead of 2017.

Course was interesting and information useful but course projects were not the most compelling or engaging. Game projects excessively traditional.

A bit basic, but it definitely teaches you the barebones of Unity and C#. Reccommended for people who have little experience with either.

It is a good introduction, yet it could contain more topics to feel like a complete course.

At first, it was very well explained but after halfway through week 3 it gets too fast

the course intructor knows his stuff but he uses these library without even telling what these library do if i wanna create a code from scratch i cannot, I m not even beginner in Coding I can write games in C++ but this course is just a blast of untold information which u have to find yourself it's just u r reading from a book and everytime looking at documentation and it's fuc**** hard to just make ur code from sratch, this course is not even worth watching because it's hardly teaching just like w** is string [] args or i donno i miss something during lectures

Gave relevant information and taught some good pratices, But some aspects of the course are rushed and others no longer fuction quite as advertised. I think a more Integrative approach taught of a longer period of time with more detail and more assingments would have been better.

Good course but very unfriendly and little to no support for Linux. Had to confgiure a lot of files and settings and even had to use another computer which had WIndows to complete the assignments.

The lectures and materials provided for this course do not use clear language and the ideas are not well organized.

Dr. T seems like a nice person but this course felt like just a passive income for him. It doesn't feel like he takes the time to make sure his courses were consistent or updated to current times. He says that Visual Studios is more popular these days than MonoDevelop but then says he will still continue to use MonoDevelop as the software during his lectures. Yes, he has a separate video for Visual Studios but then says to still go watch MonoDevelop video because he says stuff in there that he won't repeat in the Visual Studios video. I feel like the in-video quizzes were also really annoying because he will say he is going to give you a question that you won't know the answer to yet or one of the answer to the quiz will be something ridiculous like "Dr.T is a cool cat and i should do what he tells me to" but then say answers like "we love folders" is too silly of an answer. Either too serious or trying too hard to be funny. And his course discussion boards were filled with people asking questions but no one responding to it. As well as a lot of the threads being about how the autograder was not grading properly and giving bad scores. Did not like the course. It felt like just a passive income for him. Especially how he promotes the books he written in the course. I looked him up on RateMyProfessor and there were people who said the same.

讲师是一个racist,讲课的过程中夹带私货,含沙射影中国人,感到十分冒犯,建议各位不要选择这个课程,避免被创飞。 I am deeply disturbed and disappointed by this course. The instructor, Dr. T, made highly discriminatory and racist remarks about China, which are clearly documented in Chapter 1, Image 1.3 of his book. These comments are not only offensive but also deeply hurtful. Education should be a platform for fostering understanding and respect, not for spreading prejudice and hate. It is disheartening to encounter such bias in a learning environment that should be inclusive and safe for all. I strongly urge anyone considering this course to think twice before supporting a lecturer who promotes such harmful and intolerant views. Do not give your money or attention to a racial bigot.
