Description

Hands-On Game Development without Coding is the first Visual Scripting book in the market. It was tailor made for a non programing audience who are wondering how a videogame is made.

The best thing about Hands-On Game Development without Coding is that you don’t need any previous knowledge to read and understand the process of creating a videogame. It is our main focus to provide you with the opportunity to create a videogame as easy and fast as possible. Once you go through the book, you will be able to create player input interaction, levels, object behaviours, enemy AI, creating your own UI and finally giving life to your game by building it. It’s Alive!

How can you sell this over 50$? I have the book version and it has no color.. how can you make a book about visual stuff with no color? Also, the resolution of screenshots are awful, all pixelated.Go with O'Reilly collection if you want something that's worth your buck or anything that is not "PackT" ... NEVER AGAIN..

This book has nothing to do with unity’s new visual scripting system. This is about recycling the 2d and 3d game kit. This is not a book on learning unity’s visual scripting please change this misleading information. I’m highly disappointed in this one.
