Designed for aspiring game developers interested in the mobile platform, specifically Google® Android™. You’ll learn by doing, using the Unity® development platform—one of the major tools for game development, all under the guidance of industry professionals. Although this program is focused on game development, it is appropriate for beginner through advanced skill levels.
PLEASE NOTE: Students must provide their own Android™ device with an OS of 2.3.5 (Gingerbread) or later. Devices using earlier OS may not be able to run student-created games. Kindle Fire™ and Nook® devices are not recommended; they have proprietary software that prevents game loading. Students should bring their device and power cord to class every day. DMA is not responsible for lost or stolen items. If students utilize provided assets (models, textures, sounds, etc.) for their game, they cannot upload it to the Android™ store—even as a free app.
