Brief course description
Update Jan. 27th: info and link to non-commercial version of PlayMaker added.
Update Feb. 1st: A new chapter was added on re-creating Breakout. Have fun with it! Course was extended to more than twice the size.
This course is a gentle introduction to small interactive games like Flappy Birds or other classics. Instead of making a clone, we will only go through the game mechanics: flapping or jumping, gravity and collisions, using Unity Physics.
