Getting started with game development? Where should you start?
Watch me talk about game development with Microsoft Technical Evangelist Frank La Vigne! We’ll cover recommendations for both 2D and 3D tools, and various platforms including mobile and consoles.

Unity Game Development at Gallaudet University
By Shahed C on December 4, 2015
Recently, I had the opportunity to teach game development at Gallaudet University with Unity 5 and C# as the programming language. From their website, “Gallaudet University is the world leader in liberal education and career development for deaf and hard of hearing students“.
We started with a small classroom of about 10 people, including teachers and students. The faculty members graciously arranged 2 interpreters for the class, who did a great job in using ASL while I spoke.
Setting up…
We followed my Rollerball tutorial, which is a step-by-step version of Unity’s own Roll-a-ball video tutorial. You may view/download the material below.
As we wrapped up, I demonstrated how you can use Kinect to detect human bodies and provide new ways of interacting by NUI (Natural User Interface). I demonstrated a Unity sample using Kinect v2 and also used my Speech Bubbles for Kinect app within Visual Studio to take some pictures with some volunteers.
Posing for Speech Bubbles with Kinect!
My tutorial is split up into 2 PowerPoint PPTX files.
