Game Programming Online Courses

Alan · 2013-09-05T06:01:53

Hey guys! I've been thinking about enrolling in a game programming course, but college's been keeping me pretty busy, so I need something really flexible, like an online course. I'd like to know if anyone has any suggestions and/or reviews based on personal experiences. I've seen a lot of C++/3D courses, but I'm not a big fan of C++, to be honest, and I'm way more into 2D, lol. Oh, and of course, I'd love it to be free, haha, but I'd be willing to pay, depending on the amount. Thanks in advance, and have a nice one!

There's a c# game dev course that's new on coursera.

Was just about to mention Coursera They have some video game-related courses but now there's even a game programming course, pretty cool stuff.

Edit: there's another one too, about making games in Python - https://www.coursera.org/course/interactivepython

Yep, I took that course too and I highly recommend it. Very useful for beginner programmers.

Even though you might not be interested in this course I am suggesting, because I enrolled in this coursera course Beginning Game Programming with C# (begins September 16, 2013) and I want to know if anyone else is taking this course?

For 2D gaming course I highly recommend this one from Rice begins October 7. https://www.coursera.org/course/interactivepython
