Fellow code warriors, if you've ever considered building 2D or 3D games for the browser, you won't find a better guide than Rocco's just completed course on Udemy. Rocco is a gifted instructor and keeps the information flowing at the right pace while maintaining a very practical emphasis.

AND he very thoughtfully avoids confusing users by wearing the same red plaid shirt for every lecture. Check it out!

Are you a game developer looking for the ultimate low-friction way to reach a wider audience on the web?

Or are you a web developer looking for a mature development environment for bringing 2D and 3D graphical web applications to life?

Within the first ten minutes of this course, you will be able to build a 3D app and deploy it to a live website. Then you'll learn the rich history of Unity and the web, and understand how to deploy browser games to various services including:

• Github Pages

• Google Cloud / Firebase

• AWS

• Kickstarter, Patreon, Wordpress and Medium and more...

Early in the course, you'll learn three secrets that will instantly make your game look fantastic in the browser. Then you'll do a deep dive about how to use images and textures pulled from the web. You'll learn how to interface with a web search API using CORS and JSON, and we'll cover how to avoid common errors when exporting your game to WebGL. Finally, you'll learn how to achieve bi-directional communication between the browser and Unity.

This course is NOT a general purpose Unity tutorial, nor is it a general purpose Web development class. There are plenty of those. This IS an intermediate-level topics course that will spark your imagination with the amazing possibilities of 2D and 3D graphical applications in the browser.

While the earlier lessons don't require much coding, we will use plenty of C#, Javascript, HTML and CSS in the later lessons. You'll get the most out of this course if you have some development experience with either Unity or the web. But don't worry, we'll go over all the code line-by-line, and I'll share various resources and documentation with you that will help you create awesome browser-based 2D and 3D apps!

From the instructor:

I have almost twenty years of professional development experience. In the first half of my career I was a professional game developer (Rock Band, The Sims, and many more), and in the second half I specialized in graphical applications for the web (Gliffy diagramming and SIMMER game hosting).

I've tried various web-graphics libraries like three.js, babylon.js, phaser and playcanvas. Nothing comes close to the mature development tools contained within Unity3D. I believe we are at the dawn of a new era of rich 2D and 3D experiences on the web, and Unity is the killer app that will make it happen.
