Unity Game Tutorial: Board Game - Ludo 3D

The course doesn't cover many aspects like safe points, online multiplayer etc., Even if those are available in a separate course I would be glad to buy that

The instructor hasn't heard of efficient or clean code for the life of him, but otherwise a comprehensive and good course with lots of ways to customize the final product

[CODE QUALITY - NOT ABOVE AVERAGE] the code quality so far is not above average, don't get me wrong, it's not bad, but we are making everything public a better option will be to make "SerializeField", and we're making public getter functions while a better option will be to use public getter properties. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [AVOIDING PROBLEMS] we are not creating a traditional ludo game (instead a modified version of it), *what do I mean?* [ANSWER]: the starting node is not the second in its column but the first one, the problem with this is that I tried to change it to the second (as it should be) and now the stone is skipping a node in-between it's the path and going one step ahead of its goalRoute column then entering the goalRoute (so that's an issue which was avoided in the course and I need to find a proper solution for it (i will share that solution in a blog post to help others once I get that)). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [SKILL LEVEL - NOT BEGINNER] As I tried to explain above as well, I will mention one more time, that the code quality is barely around average and it's not for fresh unity beginners. we are using inner classes (that is another wrong point, as we created an inner public class that in my sense cancels the point of creating an inner class, create a global class if it has to be public or make sure to make it private or protected if it's just going to be a class used inside another class for better security and scope, anyway back to the actual point), enums, and many other unity concepts and for beginners, it will cause problem to understand these without proper explanation in advance with examples so that they understand why-it-is-the-way-it-is. e.g: we created many gameobjects in this course (there's an issue with that as well, when we create an empty gameObject we should reset its transform, as that will help with positioning later). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [POINTS TO IMPROVE] please create a proper traditional ludo game (one with rules and patterns like a simple board ludo game (same number of nodes, moves, etc)). and try to follow coding standards, like making "SerializeField" instead of the public where possible, using getter properties, and other coding standards. lastly if possible add "unity 2d knowledge" as a prerequisite (may help complete starters). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [FINAL NOTE] a final note for the course creator, you did a great job, please consider the above as polite improvement suggestions, and thanks for your great work :)

This course is complete and utter trash. I suggest the instructor learns some proper C# coding first before trying to instruct others. Seriously, the amount of bad code and bad practices taught in this course is staggering. Also unless you are a native German speaker, you will have a hard time at understanding what the instructor is talking about. Unfortunately I'm no longer eligible for a refund.

Everything was great specially the teacher and his support thanks to Octoman and udemy. but when i started the course i was hoping that you will also teach me to upload my game on playstore and apple store but thats ok for now. After all THE COURSE WAS GREAT. THANKS TO ALL

Initially, I was hesitant to purchase this course because I took a prior course by Octoman (Pinball 3D) and didn’t really enjoy it. Perhaps, it was me as it was my very first endeavor into Unity and I got a little lost. However, I really did enjoy this class. I liked the pace of the class, the detailed instruction and I learned a few things along the way. I would suggest this class for competent beginners to intermediate Unity users. Octoman does not waste time explaining basic code structure, Unity editor features, etc.; which I appreciated. What I liked most about the class is that the code is pretty solid and scalable and can easily be adopted into similar type games. And, the finished game is actually fun. I would have rated the course 5 stars but took 1/2 a star off as Octoman overlooked a feature re: GameSettings and having “No_Player” assigned to a seat, but not a major issue as easily self-addressed. Also, towards the end of the class it was a bit rushed when we got to the mundane parts of polishing your game but I was reaching the point of being done myself so not a big deal for me; however, newer users of Unity may have enjoyed a little more detail. Anyway, great job, Octoman! (I may have to go back and try the Pinball course again.)

Really good course! It helped me a lot in a personal project I am doing. The only thing I would add is incremental iteration i.e. each time you add something or write a new method or a line of code go back to Unity to see if it works because afterwards it can become difficult to keep track of all the things you've implemented. Thanks!

The great course I already started a projet to development a Ludo Game but I was used the base from game chess, but several wrongs made to find a new course or examples, I happy was founded this course and I hope that it able me to finish my project. I suggest to you that to include part that implementing multiplayer in this course or in another, I will certainly buy it.

I liked taking this course, so I can make some board games. Now I can used what I learned here to do so. Thanks for good course.

Awful service . Non Helping instructor. No Project files , actually needed one's. In short one of the most worst teacher and teaching i ever faced .

very explanatory and detailed, all steps are included from start to end to make a complete turn based game. I have learned a lot from the course. Don't consider 7 hrs video is less, it is very condensed course.

Simplifies the process of what Ludo games should be as well as game concepts needed for any board game. Finally a course that addresses turn-based traditional board games.

I found the course very useful. Coming from a C++ and Delphi background I found that it helped the transition to C# in a most practical way. Loved using unity in a useful way lots of stops and rewinds with the video's but they were detailed enough to cope with my inexperience.

very good instructor. he is so humble and give your all question's answer i leave 1 star because some rule are not included in this course. btw course is too good.

It is great tutorial. But if you can make a video about how we can put music and sounds. That will make it better
