Video games helping you cope? Learn how to create your own.
TL;DR: Create your own fun with the Build a Strategy Game Development online course bundle for $39.99, a 97% savings as of Aug. 8.
If video games have been helping you pass the time while you're stuck at home, you're far from alone. There's a reason you haven't been able to escape conversations about Animal Crossing since April. And it all boils down to one beautiful little word: escapism.
But if that's just not doing it for you anymore, why not kick it up a notch and become the architect of someone else's escape by creating your very own video game? It sounds complicated, but this $40 training will walk you through how to get started.
Once you dive in, you'll realize that creating a good strategy game boils down to understanding one very important software: Unity game engine. Almost all of the courses featured in this deal involve training you in different aspects of Unity, from basic grid placement to combat mechanics to camera controls and beyond. You'll start by creating a simple, turn-based micro-strategy game about building a colony on Mars and work up to a strategy-based one-on-one battle game, learning all the necessary programming and controls along the way.
And if you have zero prior coding experience? No problem. This game teaches you all the necessary coding for each project you'll be working on, which can then be applied to a variety of strategy game systems you can expand further for larger, turn-based projects. In fact, your portfolio will be looking pretty dang good after all of the hands-on projects you'll get to do throughout the courses, which is sure to impress the pants off of any hiring manager who stumbles across your work.
It's time to put down the controller (for now — you can totally pick it back up again when you're done) and start putting those gaming skills to good use. Snag this strategy game development bundle for just $39.99. That's less than most games cost anyway, so no excuses.
