Make Online Games Using Unity’s NEW Multiplayer Framework

Ever wanted to make your very own multiplayer games? The free Unity Game Engine is making the process easier than it has been with its new Netcode For GameObjects (NGO) framework.

In this course we’ll create a multiplayer top-down shooter that you can modify and turn into your own fun creation and play against 20 or more people simultaneously online. In the process you’ll learn how to create and deploy a dedicated server with matchmaking.

We’ll be making a .io style game (like slither .io and agar .io), that can accommodate dozens of players. Through that process you’ll build the skills to make your own competitive or cooperative multiplayer game in any genre that interests you.

You’ll learn about networking and how to make the game a multiplayer. You’ll start building the core gameplay, making your tanks move, shoot, collect coins etc. Later you’ll add polish and more advanced features like leaderboards, mini maps and bounties.

You’ll take your game online using UGS (Unity Gaming Services) so players can connect over the internet without the need to port forward.

Finally you’ll learn how to make your game deployable as a dedicated server, so none of the players have to host the game. And you’ll learn to integrate matchmaking, so players can queue up, be matched together and a server spun up for them to play on.

You’ll get full lifetime access for a single one-off fee. The creators are qualified and experienced with modelling and coding, so are able to explain complex concepts clearly, as well as entertain along the way.

All students have access to the Q&A where our Instructors, Teaching Assistants and Community are ready to help answer your questions and cheer on your success.
