Learn to build a full 2D game level hands-on in Unity with tools like Tilemap and Cinemachine
This course teaches the new 2d tools and features of Unity 2017, including the Tilemap and Timeline Editor tools. These features are completely new to Unity and allow developers to develop 2d games quicker and more effectively. This course is geared towards beginners but is a great choice for any Unity developer looking to learn how to use Unity’s latest tools and features.
The Tilemap Tool allows users to paint sprites onto a grid to facilitate rapid and more precise prototyping and 2d level design. The Timeline Editor, powered by cinemachine, allows developers and animators to easily coordinate complex cutscenes by providing one timeline that can visually layout the animations of several game objects at once.
In this course, we will use these two core features of Unity 2017 to build a 2d platformer game level. We will build a splash screen, animated cutscene, playable third person character, artificially intelligent enemies, in-game collectibles, and a 2d level. By the end of this course you will have hands-on experience implementing all of these game features using Unity’s latest 2d tools.
The full project made in this course is attached as a resource to the course. So if you get stuck for any reason, you have both the full project as well as myself that you can reach out to for help!

The course is a bit outdated and the the instructor seems to rush through some of the lectures.
Nice detail great examples
Fun class
setting up sprites is a bit repetitive. He could have had us do this in bulk for the ones w/ similar settings. The content is a bit basic. Much of it you could learn on your own. I would have liked to have seen more info on the Tile APIs.
Content is 5* and it does provide what it says, but the presentation and flow is very clunky. There are areas where he rapidly moves through things and it can be hard to follow.
This is by far the best course from this brilliant instructor. I have taken his other courses and learned a lot, but this one was so interesting, creative and a blast to follow. So much information and action throughout the entire course and he makes it so easy to understand. I was so happy to see that he will be releasing more courses!
This course teaches how to build a whole game level, from the ground up. Easy to follow. I really enjoyed the instructor’s teaching method.

It would be easier to break down which sprites have to be tagged altogether instead of listing each one along with size one by one
