#This 17-course mega-training package can turn you into a game creator for less than $20

For those who love storytelling, for those intrigued by new technology, and for those who often find themselves brimming over with creativity, there may be no more perfect career pursuit than life as a professional video game developer.

If you’ve got the chops, it’s a very healthy paycheck…plus, it scratches all those creative and problem-solving itches as well. Right now, learners inspired to make great games can jump in with both feet with the exhaustive 2021 Premium Unity Game Developer Certification Bundle ($44.99, over 90 percent off, from TNW Deals).

And when we say exhaustive, we truly mean exhaustive. This collection includes 17 different courses jam-packed with almost 150 hours of intensive training in game creation, particularly on the Unity gaming platform, the most popular and most powerful game generation environment ever.

The Intro to Mobile Game Development and The Secret to Smoother Gameplay with Unity AI lay some of the groundwork for getting into the ins and outs of game design, including the basics of using Unity’s incredible tools for getting a fresh game idea started.

As students dig deeper into the bundle, there’s coursework exploring all the skills a budding developer needs to know. And part of the joy is that each new Unity skill mastered often comes while you create a new game. So you not only learn what Unity can do, you’ve got a tangible example of your efforts.

By crafting your own air hockey game, learners dig into coding basics and art design. Putting together a tank maze game as well as a 3D starship exploration game help teach how artificial intelligence is integrated into gaming to produce smarter, more worthy game adversaries. And there’s even training in using augmented reality in your designs as you put together a cool block builder game.

And since you can’t escape commerce, even in gaming, there are even courses in how to integrate ad opportunities and in-app purchases into mobile games and some of the more battle-tested moneymaking possibilities in creating and selling your own games.

The 2021 Premium Unity Game Developer Certification Bundle is $3,400 worth of in-depth training, but as part of the Memorial Day Sale, the whole package is available now for only $20, just over $1 per course. That rock-bottom price will only last for the next week, so get in on this deal now.
