Objectives
Objectives
The student should know the predefined events in a Unity-based application, and decide which ones to use to implement the desired functionality. The student should also master the methods of asynchronous and parallel programming with threads and routines, as well as know their advantages and limitations. Additionally, the student should also be able to deploy new components and expose some variables in the inspector window, making use of the functionality already provided by the engine. Additionally, the student should also be able to implement transitions between states and scenes to create a cohesive final game experience. Finally, some specific programming concepts using object-oriented language (in this case C #) should also be assimilated (eg Inheritance, Polymorphism), as well as Design Patterns.
