This is not a good course, as none of the Assets are available in this course and you have to purchase them outside of this

Content was knowledgeable but mid-way both Video quality and Audio deteriorated. If there are no scripts provided as backup it is crucial that video quality not be compromised. The Trainer knows his stuff and having taken other courses form this same author he is good at delivery but on this occasion the video and audio quality was poor and blurry on large monitors.

The assets are a thing... Why not just do it with privatives for the class and leave it at that? No one monitors this Q&A anymore

This course is a very mixed bag. If you are familiar with Unity and have at least intermediate coding skills, it will give you some useful conceptual pointers how to create a Pac Man style game. Just do NOT follow the (terrible) code written by the instructor, but instead take it as a challenge to implement the game logic with a proper state machine and behavior components. For anyone else I can not recommend this course at all. I also didn't like that the instructor doesn't include the asset pack with the course but instead asks you to buy them from his website for additional money.

Actually the instructor is pretty good, however it may sometimes be hard to follow him. Because when he is writing so many functinalities in a single lecture, he only test thoose functionalities at the end of a lecture. So when there is a problem he may return to code and fix some of the previous code. It is pretty normal actually. But for a learner it may sometimes be frustrating. Also I believe that the source code and the assets should become available once a student buys the course. Thats all from me, I recommend you to take this course to anyone who is into game programming, ai and states are essential for every game programmer which this course nails. Thank you octoman :)

Great course. It's easy to follow, and I was able to finish the game. Many thanks. Highly recommend this course!

More explanation should've went into the script logic and assets should've been provided. Other than these two things the course was pretty good.

This tutorial is very informative and helpful for me since I just started learning how to program C# with Unity for creating games.

going a bit too fast, it's throwing some items too fast, maybe have more examples of what every added item will do and why.

I put up a question for the issue i am having because it is not covered as a part of the course which is not right since the materials and environment is being used without showing how to create it or without a package to import.

Estoy conforme con la compra, aun que no hablo ingles, se entiende fasilmente lo que el profesor quiere explicar.

Teacher really knows the stuff in details. Assets are not included in the Udemy course. Can get it at additional cost from external site. It is a great advantage to have the assets.
