Unity Engine Video Game Fundamentals

23rd January 10:00 to 12:00
A workshop to introduce the basics of the Unity Engine and game creation through the creation of a simple 2D game. Alongside this, the basics of GitHub through GitHub Desktop will be explored.
This activity is offered as part of Future Me Week - five days of exciting opportunities to develop your skills, deepen understanding, gain experience and take steps towards an exciting Future You.

This workshop will teach you the basics of video game creation within the Unity Engine without going into any coding. This is done with a lego blocks approach, where the required code has been pre-written and can be added to the game as required! Unity is one of the most common game engines used by indie developers and beginners, and is perfect for new video game designers.

The workshop will also involve the basics of using GitHub Desktop to save your work using version control software, allowing you to take home what you create in the session and work on it in your own time or show your friends/family. This is used all over the industry and is good to have a basic understanding of.
