Who Should Attend

Flutter and Dart developers who want to master the art of Mobile Game development using the flame Game Engine.

Target Audiences

Flutter and Dart developers who want to master the art of Mobile Game development using the flame Game Engine.

Welcome to the Mobile Game Development Course in which we will Reverse Engineer, Architect, and Developa mobile version of the famous Chrome Dinosaur Game uing the Flame Game Engine with Flutter and Dart.

Why Develop Mobile Games?
Mobile Games are by far the largest share of Game Application revenue in the world. More than 50% of all game application development comes from Mobile games.

Being able to code Mobile Games offers great potential in such a large market.

Why Flame Engine

The Flame Engine is a minimalist 2D game engine that runs on top of the Flutter framework. So it is light-weight with a small footprint.

This is perfect for mobile games.

Advantages of The Flutter Framework

You work with one code base but get multiple platform deployment. Basically write once, and deploy to both iOSand Android. This is a huge advantage as it saves you time and effort.

And this is great for mobile games since we do not rely on the specific OS GUI as we basically take over the screen and create our own GUI from scratch.

Why Take this course?

In this course we will teach you how to go through the full game development cycle and you will learn how to develop a mobile game from scratch.

We will start with the game idea
We will then reverse engineer this idea into game requirements
1. they will include the game elements
2. and the game mechanics
We will then consider the game aesthetics
We will create a game architecture
And then we will fully develop the game.

Assumptions

We assume that you know Flutter/Dart and have worked with it.
We also assume that you have some knowledge of the Flame Engine. This could be either through an introductory course such as “Flame & Flutter with Dart : Build your First 2D Mobile Game”which is offered on Udemy or through some online tutorials.

Everything in this course will be explained in detail including the code so you do not have to be an expert.

What will you learn?

This course will teach you not just to code the game but it will teach you the full scope of the game development cycle.

The Chrome Dinosaur game is an example of a very popular game genre which is the Endless Runner Game and also known as Infinite Runner Game.

Developing any game from scratch is a great exercise that will not only make you a better game developer but it will also help you master the Flame Game Engine API so that you will be able to create your own games.

Reverse Engineeringa Game is a very important skill for a game developer and we will look carefully at every detail of the game mechanics and the game elements for the Chrome Dino game, and we will map the mechanics and the elements into an architecture which we will then develop.

We will use efficient sprite animation as well as simple sound design. We will map out all the individual game elements and their mechanics and then we will combine them into more complex behavior. For example we will combine the mechanics of our Dino and the obstacles to include Collision Detection in the most efficient and architecturally sound manner.

Milestone approach

Part of how we teach you in this course revolves around practical case studies. Each case study shows you a full solution to a given element of 2D game coding such as for example Animation or Collision Detection.

Each milestone will build on the previous one which is one of the most important skills in software development. We will build for ease of modification and ease of enhancement.
