This course doesn't assume you have any previous programming experience. Don't worry if you've never written code before; we'll start at the very beginning and work our way up to building small games by the end of the course. Throughout the course you'll learn core programming concepts that apply to lots of programming languages, including C , and you'll also learn how to apply those concepts when you develop games. Computer programming is really fun in general, and programming games is even better!
Caution: Beginning assuming no prior programming knowledge is not the same as easy not hard to do. Learning to program IS hard to do, especially since this course is essentially the first half of a freshman-level college course. Meeting the course challenges while you master the material will be rewarding to you, but doing that will require hard work and maybe even a few expletives along the way.
This course is an independent work and is not sponsored by, authorized by, or affiliated with Unity Technologies or its affiliates. This course is the second course in the specialization about learning how to develop video games using the C programming language and the Unity game engine on Windows or Mac.
This course assumes you have the prerequisite knowledge from the previous course in the specialization. You should make sure you have that knowledge, either by taking that previous course or from personal experience, before tackling this course. Throughout this course you'll continue building your foundational C and Unity knowledge by exploring more C and Unity topics and finishing the Unity game you started at the end of the previous course.
The material in this and the previous course is essentially our first programming course for Game Design and Development majors at UCCS. This course is the third course in the specialization about learning how to develop video games using the C programming language and the Unity game engine on Windows or Mac.

The material in this and the previous two courses is essentially our first programming course for Game Design and Development majors at UCCS. Module 1: Learn about abstraction and how we can use it to design and implement console application classes Module 2: Learn more about how methods and parameters work Module 3: Learn how we can use abstraction to design and implement Unity classes Module 4: Add text output like score!
This course is the fourth course in the specialization about learning how to develop video games using the C programming language and the Unity game engine on Windows or Mac. This course assumes you have the prerequisite knowledge from the previous three courses in the specialization. The required prerequisite knowledge is listed in the "Who this class is for" section below.
Throughout this course you'll build on your foundational C and Unity knowledge by developing more robust games with better object-oriented designs using file input and output, inheritance and polymorphism, and event handling.
This course gives you even more tools to help you build great games with C and Unity! The University of Colorado is a recognized leader in higher education on the national and global stage.

Learn more. NET Core than. This course is several years old, and uses. There is a newer version of the course that uses. If you want to learn. He has more videos on. But, if you take this course, you should still get a good knowledge of C , which is mostly the same in the. NET Core version of C. Sorry to bother you at this time of hour.
I could really use your help. My rtbMessages does not show any message when I click the movement button. Can you check if you can upload them? If there are problems doing that in GitHub, you can post the files to a file-sharing site like Dropbox.
Hi I was wondering where to find the link to these files on github? I have a quick question, and it is going to sound silly. Honestly, you probably referenced it somewhere in the instructions, but I cannot find it. I see where we mapped out the locations in pseudocode..
No problem! Thank you so so much for creating this. I have to take intermediate C next term and I know that completing this game with give me a huge head start. Thank you! Hi Scott, thanks for this tutorial — as a beginner, learned a lot seeing a game built start to finish. In short, SuperAdventure. Can you upload the code for the whole solution to GitHub, or some other file-sharing location, so I can look at it?
Here you go! One way to create eventhandlers for buttons is to double-click on them in the designer screen.
If you do that, Visual Studio will create the eventhandler and an empty function in SuperAdventure. However, since we already have the functions in SuperAdventure.
You can learn more about eventhandlers in lesson To connect the buttons, edit the SuperAdventure form in design mode. Click on each button once be careful to not double-click , and try these steps: 1. In the Properties section lower-right of Visual Studio , click the lightning bolt see the image below for an example. This will show you the events for the button. This should show you a dropdown of available event functions for buttons.
That should let you move North when you start the game. When you move to a new location, you should see different direction buttons available. Try editing SuperAdventure. You might need to move and resize the controls once, to get them the way you want. But, this might fix the problem for the future. Windows Forms had some strange behavior with auto-scaling and determining DPI dots per inch. Thanks Scott that worked!
I owe you a coffee. My UI buttons did not have event functions assigned. Hopefully this helps others. Is that feasible or is You probably could go from lesson 17 to lesson 22, if you just wanted to learn about SQL.
Let me know if you do that and encounter any problems. Hey Scott! Would it be regardless a problem if I use this as base for my developed game? As you would expect you would claim credit. More of the game would be made by my team graphic quest map, etc. Say what you think. Yes, it is OK to use this as a base for your game. The only thing you need to do is include a copy of the MIT license when you release your game.
I am new to programming and this tutorial has helped greatly to learn about object oriented programming. This could happen if you accidentally double-clicked on the form, while in design mode.
I might not be able to look at it right away. I just got electricity again, after a day and a half without it. Thanks for the reply! That worked great and the program is working as expected! I was having such a good time following along, and even made a few nice changes and edits, added a few things and was doing good…. Man, that sucks. I would have rather you left that part up to us, because I skipped several sections like LINQ and the XML and my code was no longer compatible with the base….
Originally, this was only going to go to lesson Show to work inside the FormClosing method. If you want me to look at your code, and let you know why that happened, can you upload your solution including the directories under it, and all the files in those directories to GitHub , Dropbox , or some other file-sharing location?
Sure thing! This was just one solution that did actually work for some reason. I had even added a MessageBox. I found the source of the problem. The OnFormClosing function did not have an eventhandler. You can read more about eventhandlers in lesson The way to identify this type of problem is to look above the function in Visual Studio. To fix this, you can add the line below inside the InitializeComponent function in SuperAdventure.
This will connect the form closing event with the function. FormClosingEventHandler this. Focus and think critically about what you are learning and creating, then take a break and "sleep on it" 2. When you return to the problem you will likely have a better understanding of it.
It is classified as an Object-Oriented Programming OOP language because object-oriented theory is inherent; code is organized as objects that have properties and behaviors. Your next step is to set up your development environment. Visual Studio Community is a free application that will help you write and debug your code.
If you already have Visual Studio or an alternative development environment set up, you can skip the first chapter, and move to C Adventure Output where we will walk through how to create a new project in Visual Studio, and write text to the screen Console Window.
