From C++ fundamentals to advanced

What you'll learn

Fundamental C++ into Advanced

Basic 2D Game Development

Requirements

Windows Operating System recommended

Description

In this course I'll start out your C++ journey from the beginning and move you through advanced whilst moving towards making a little dungeon game.

Everything is in here from the very starting points, so the course is good for beginners or those returning to C++ who want to brush up on their skills. At the college I used to teach at, this content would cover subjects C++ 1, C++ 2 and Basic Game Dev with C++ (each of those subjects cost like $1.5k AUD). If you are studying at a Uni or College, this course makes a good companion resource for those you with C++ subjects.

Through out the course I provide project check points and reference projects if you get lost along the way. This course runs a bit over 16hrs, so take your time on it. Here is a list of some of the things we run through on this course:

variables and math

input and output

if statement, while and for loops

arrays, 1d and 2d

classes, inheritance and polymorphism

pointers and dynamic memory

rendering and animation

basic 2d game logic

and a bunch more!

C++ is still very relevant in many software engineering jobs but also to lots of game engines such as Unreal. Its a good starting language for many looking to get into software development of some kind.

Let's make a sweet dungeon game!

Who this course is for:

Beginner coders/programmers interested in C++

Uni students looking for more C++ learning resources

C++ developers wanting to brush up on some skills and make a game
