You just need to be able to perform common computer tasks such as downloading items, opening and saving files, and be comfortable with dragging and dropping items and typing.

Description

In this course, you will become comfortable with Unity’s interface and its core features, by creating a project (with no coding involved) that includes both an indoor and an outdoor environment.

You will learn how to install Unity and to become familiar with the interface. You will also learn and use different shortcuts necessary to navigate through scenes and projects in Unity.

You will learn to create and export your first scene by combining built-in objects. You will also learn how to manage objects, apply textures and colors, and transform objects to create a simple scene.

You will create an indoor scene (i.e., a maze) with built-in shapes. You will also work with and manage lights in your scene to set the atmosphere and navigate through the scene with a First-Person Controller.

You will then create a realistic island with sandy beaches, water, and palm trees using Unity’s built-in assets, drive a car and pilot an airplane.
