Genre: eLearning

In this class, you will learn the principles of an Artificial Intelligence in Video Games and you’ll learn how to implement it in Unity using the C# language.

I’ll teach you how an AI works in a video game and what are the Algorithms that you can use to implement a simple AI for your game.

At the end of this course, you will be able to create basic AIs for your games and you’ll have a clear vision on how you can create more complex AIs.

A basic knowledge of Unity and C# is recommended for this lesson.

During this class you will learn

The Basic Theories of Artificial Intelligence
What are State Machines and Decision Trees
What are deterministic and non-deterministic games
The Algorithms that exist for creating AIs and what are their pros and cons
How to be creative while creating an AI
