A course by Juan Diego Vázquez Moreno
Juan Diego Vázquez studied computer engineering at the University of Seville, Spain, and not long after kicking off his career as a programmer, he decided to take the plunge and start a video game development company along with a few colleagues. In 2013, he began collaborating on the development and publishing of a handful of 2D mobile games created using Unity alongside big industry names.
In 2015, he developed the video game Crossing Souls, an '80s inspired pixel art adventure available on PC, PS4, and Nintendo Switch. His journey through the world of video games has led him to develop various 2D games using Unity and its wide array of tools. He always seeks to perfectly balance the user's overall enjoyment with optimization of the user experience.

Este es un curso muy claro e inspirador.
amazing course, recommend it to anyone trying to get into dev
El material del curso es adecuado y su organización es efectiva. ATENCIÓN: Sin embargo, la forma en que se presenta es bastante compleja. Con frecuencia, no comprendes lo que estás realizando, y lo que complica aún más es que numerosos elementos están desorganizados, mal explicados y no operan correctamente debido a su mala aplicación.
El contenido del curso es bueno y como estructurarlo también está muy bien. ATENCIÓN: Pero está explicado de una forma muy complicada. A menudo no sabes que estás haciendo, y lo que ya rompe completamente es que muchas de las cosas están desordenadas, mal explicadas y no funcionan porque están mal aplicadas. Una pena. Al final te limitas a copiar scripts sin entender nada.
Suerte que la comunidad ayuda y arregla los errores, sino desde la lección 3 ya se hubiera abandonado el curso.
Muy bueno
