First half of the course was excellent. Tutorials were enough for the assignments and it was very helpful. But I can't tell the same about the second half. Assignment requirements were a little too much compared to the tutorial lessons. I felt overwhelmed and course content wasn't enough for me. I had to watch some YouTube tutorials to complete my assignment. I have reviewed 14 peers and I can clearly tell the tutorials weren't enough for them aswell. I really dislike the Peer-Graded Assignment system. Yes, I learned a lot from my peers but I think there are some issues with the system. For example, I had a pretty good description of my project and I clearly had more than two screenshots but somehow my reviewers decided not to give me any points for it? So, does that mean If my reviewer is having a bad day I may even fail my assignment? This feels unfair and all I can do is re-submit my project and get new reviewers.

This is a very good intro to Unity course. For weeks 1-2 it's a real good getting your feet on the ground tutorial. For the week 3-4 the 2d shooter project, it depends on what you want out of it. I think the goal of this part of the class isn't so much to have you make a 2d shooter game, but to give you a basic one pre-built and teach you how to make a few mods to start with figuring that later classes will teach deeper changes. Which is fine and useful. But if you want to make it more your own, just know you'll need to be prepared to scour the Unity manual, internet and any friends you have who code because there is almost zero instruction on how to do any C# scripting at this stage of the class. Which is fine since that's not really the goal of this intro class. It's a good intro first class.

Main teacher Brian Winn has a clear voice and is really simple to follow the lessons even if I'm not so skilled in english. Second teacher instead and a voice that is difficult to follow and sometime I needed to read the lesson transcription to understand. Finally I found some minor issue in assets for 2D shooter game: the particle effects used for explosions result in a weird glitch after using it in my assessment game. Second issue was the player movement that overcome the barrears after changing game assets. I used a youtube tutorial to understand the C# component issue on physics usage and after the modification the player worked well smoothly. Apart these two minor issues the course is interesting and helped me a lot to understand basic Unity game engine concepts.
