基于Unity引擎的游戏开发基础 from Coursera

随着互联网和智能手机的快速发展，《Angry Birds》（愤怒的小鸟）、《Temple Run》（神庙逃亡）等手游作品取得巨大成功，让独立开发者赚得第一桶金。移动平台的3D网络游戏开发成为趋势，优秀作品雨后春笋般涌现，Supercell Oy公司开发的《Clash of Clans》（部落冲突）与Blizzard Entertainment公司开发的《Hearth Stone》（炉石传说）风靡全球。网易、腾讯、巨人、恺英网络等业界著名公司也将游戏业务重心转向移动平台，市场涌现出莉莉丝、银汉科技等一大批新锐手游公司。

Unity引擎简单易用、功能丰富、具有跨平台等优秀特性，已成为业界最重要的开发工具。目前，全球大部分独立开发者与游戏工作室都选择Unity游戏引擎作为开发工具，快速开发高品质的手游作品。

《Unity游戏编程基础》课程主要讲述了如何使用Unity引擎开发移动端3D游戏。与课程内容同步，我们设计基于移动平台的第一人称3D射击游戏《慕课英雄》（MOOC HERO）。整个过程分为三个阶段：第一阶段，介绍物理系统、图形系统和音频，用于构建多米诺骨牌的场景；第二阶段，使用Unity的地形系统搭建游戏场景，将第一阶段的多米诺骨牌模型添加到游戏场景中，添加玩家与敌人角色，使用动画系统控制玩家与敌人角色动画的播放，编写Unity脚本实现玩家与敌人的行为和场景中的游戏逻辑；第三阶段，使用uGUI设计游戏交互界面，使用粒子系统与线渲染器实现玩家开枪效果和场景火焰效果，同时制作了场景中收集物以及游戏胜利与失败画面，最终将项目部署到移动平台。

此外，网络开发、人工智能、Shader（着色器）编程等Unity引擎高级功能将在本专项课程有关游戏编程的第二门课中进行学习。

通过本门课程的学习，你将理解Unity引擎的主要功能，学会利用Unity引擎开发移动平台的3D游戏，在入职游戏行业或独立游戏开发道路上迈出重要一步。
