This is not a course for absolute beginners. You'll need a basic grasp of Unity and C# before you get started so that you're ready for the more advanced concepts we'll be using such as events, interfaces, and inheritance.

Nathan Farrer
Hello, I'm Nathan.
I've been making and modding games for as long as I can remember. I started to get serious about coding when I was 15 and quite quickly stumbled across Unity and have been deep within the engine ever since.
I really enjoy building systems, gameplay mechanics, and have spent a lot of time experimenting with multiplayer networking. Online I go by the name of Dapper Dino and have been growing my YouTube channel since 2018, mostly teaching people the more intermediate topics so that they can use Unity to make the game of their dreams! I'm also part of the Unity Insiders program which gives me access to the latest and greatest information as well as amazing connections with Unity developers and content creators.
