Howdy!I want to share with you more than 7 years of mobile games dev experienceCareer:In 2015, I got my degree in Automotive Engineering, specialized in Embedded Systems.I worked on a Bio car in Geneva, Switzerland.I then worked in Munich, Germany at BMW.But all of this didn’t mean much. I wanted to make games.Since my younger age, I loved coding, I loved learning, but I mainly loved Teaching.I used to teach kids about mathematics, physics and chemistry during while I was learning engineering for some pocket money.So only 2 months after working at BMW, I packed my stuff, came back to my parent’s house, and started making games.I started using Buildbox at the time to make platformers & endless hyper casual games to hope making a living off of them.I then stumbled upon Unity and this made me make better games. I became more used to C#.This led me to learn more about OOP, S.O.L.I.D. principles and Architecture.I then pumped up my skills by learning more about Game Design & Art.The Comeback:Having gathered all these skills for more than 7 years, I’m now back to fulfill my goal, sharing with you what I’ve learned, and learn more in the process.Taking my courses, you’ll learn:- The Basics & the more Advanced stuff of C#, step by step- How to make a mobile game from scratch- How to Optimize your mobile game- How to make a Solid Architecture to make Updating your game a breeze- How to increase the Retention of your mobile game- How to publish your game on the App Store & Play Store- 3D Modeling with Blender- And more Tips & TricksSo be ready for this amazing journey, and feel free to ask whenever you’re stuck, I’m here to help!
