Welcome to my Udemy course on how to make a complete game from scratch in Unity.

For this course we will be making a Match3 puzzle game.

Some of the wildly successful Match 3 puzzle games you may have heard of or played are; Bejewelled, Candy Crush, Anipang, Puzzle & Dragon, and Zookeeper.

These games all contain a grid of matchable objects. The player must swap 2 adjacent objects in the grid to form a matching set of 3 objects in a row or column and is rewarded with an increasing score. If larger matches are formed, the player is awarded a power-up which can help them achieve an even higher score.

These games are extremely simple to play, having very limited input, making them accessible to a wide audience. However, the complexity of the grid system and randomization of the options available make the games difficult to master.

In this course, you’ll learn how to apply coding patterns and object-oriented programming principles in Unity to produce a set of tools that will help you efficiently manage resources throughout the game development cycle. You’ll use these tools to build a Match 3 game from scratch, learning to use many of Unity’s features along the way. Unlike some other game development courses, the scripts you will write in this course will be structured, clean, efficient, and reusable for other projects.
