What a great, surprising course! Filled with information, some great explanations and topics not touched on by many courses. Definitely a recommendation, BUT not to absolute beginners. The instructor clearly put a lot of effort into this. I expected a paint by numbers, rushed course to make quick money and I expected to have to do a lot of working out myself. But turns out the instructor explains quite a bit, sometimes using illustrations to show exactly what is happening. The only 2 potential downsides I can give are : 1 - The instructor doesn't have the greatest naming convention. I often found myself renaming variables to make them make sense. So I recommend really making sure you understand a section before moving on to the next, since you may get confused staring at the code later on. 2 - This is advertised as a 'beginner course'. Wow I can only imagine trying to follow along as a beginner. If you don't even know what a variable is then this is definitely not the course for you. But assuming you understand unity's layout, how to create scripts etc you should be fine. Nearly perfect course for my needs, but I can see why some people would find issue with it. Hence the 4.5! :)

The course is not quite complete. I would like to have known how you made the buttons "pop" - I see you used an image called button_1. So a little discussion on this topic would have been most helpful. Also it would have been good if you went through the process of how to put this on google play store. I am also still waiting on an answer on 1 of the 2 questions asked. Something on how to exit the game and how to build the game should have also been included to complete the game. Hope this feedback helps. Otherwise it was a good course for someone who is not a complete beginner.

Thank you for making this course! I'm a beginner, so I liked it that you talked slow and in simple words (English not mother tongue) and that you explained every step you did. I completed the game and will post it soon on itch.io. I can totally recommend this course and I hope you'll make other courses as well. Take care!

The instruction moves quite fast, but after watching videos several times and back tracking to previous videos I do finally grasp what is going on. Keep in mind I am fairly new to unity. To others that are new, I found I need to use lots of comments in the script to explain what certain lines are doing. I've come across, what seems to be, a couple video editing errors causing confusion but I have, so far, been able to fix the resulting issues. I'm half way through and so far it is a good course. Note: since writing this review the instructor has contacted me about the video editing errors and is going to take a look at them. Shows he is interested in improving his product. Bumped the rating up half a star as I know he is here to help. Good job. I have finished the course and have a lot better understanding of how to use Unity. This course helped me greatly as I was working on a Mastermind game when I saw this course pop up. I was having trouble getting started and most of that was due to my inexperience with Unity. This course will make you feel more comfortable with Unity. I had mentioned at my half way point that the instruction moves too fast but by the end I was able to keep up and even be ahead of the instructor. This was well worth my time and money. To the Instructor, thank you.
