Sections 1-5 - 2D 1010 Game

• You will learn how to create a drag block, how to handle different situations (such as coordinate snapping) when you touch and drag the drag block when it is created, how to place the drag block on the board, or how to return it to its original position, and how to play animations.
• Checks if a drag block is placeable and places it. Checks if a line is complete and deletes the blocks in the completed line with a Scale animation.
• Check if there is a place to place the drag block you have at the bottom, and if it is not possible to place it, the game is over.
• Configure UI screens such as current score, high score, main screen, pause, and result screen, and implement UI entry/exit animations.
• Using the screen screenshot function, information about the blocks placed when the game is over is displayed on the results screen.

_{19 types of blocks placed in the game}

_{It is a 2D game where you place drag blocks on the board and complete a line of 10 horizontally or vertically.}

Sections 6~9 - 2D 2048 Game

• We implement the movement and zoom animation of an object using the coroutine method and the Vector3.Lerp() method.
• Parts that require understanding, such as block movement and merging code, are explained step by step with examples.
• Checks if there is an empty node the block can move to and if there is a block that can be merged, and if not, the game is over.
• You can choose the size from the main menu to play on grid maps of various sizes, from 3x3 to 6x6.
• Create UI screen configurations such as current score, high score, main screen, home, and results screen.

_{It is a 2D game where you drag up, down, left, and right to move or merge blocks to reach 2048.}

Q. Can non-majors also take the course?

This is possible because we have created videos and PPTs so that even non-majors can follow along.
However, for non-majors and Unity beginners, they can only "create the same game as in the lecture."

Creating this game requires understanding the various principles and knowledge to apply them to other games.
Non-majors are recommended to first study the course "Dr. Koh's Unity Basics: Learn by Following" before taking this course.

Q. What are the benefits of taking this course?

Learn how to create games with Unity.
To develop the game you want, you need to understand the logic of many games and be able to apply the code and techniques you know.
Applying these techniques requires exposure to many games developed by others.

• This course was created using the latest version of Unity, 2021.2.8f1 (as of March 31, 2022).
• To follow this tutorial, we recommend using Unity 2020.3.xf1 (LTS) or later, which is the recommended release.
• This course currently works fine on the latest LTS version, 2022.3.xf1, and the latest other versions, 2023.2.xf1.
