Yesterday I finished making a game and now have 65 days before I have to start working on a new Unity course for the University of Alaska – so I’m going to spend it diving into Defold. My intention is to get up to speed (for some value of speed) and get at least one “mini-course” completed before I have to switch back to Unity.
Steps to Complete in the Next 65 Days
- Work through all the official tutorials on the site (one down as of tonight!)
- Play with the sample code that’s found throughout the Manuals and API docs.
- Convert one of the official written tutorials into video.
- Create a mini-game from scratch.
- Turn that mini-game into a set of video lessons.
I know it’s a lot, but I live in Alaska which is a DEAD ZONE for everything I’m interested in, so that leaves me lots of time to work. (Silver lining, much?)
I’ll keep this topic updated with my progress. I hope to get all of step 1 done by the end of the weekend.
