🎉 Course Description:

Are you fascinated by the journey a video game takes from conception to launch? Ever wondered what it takes to be a game producer and how they ensure a game's success? If so, this is the course for you! 🧐✨

A complete introduction to how video games are produced from what a game producer does everyday (📈 managing budgets, scheduling, and planning) to how to build and maintain a backlog (🗂️ organizing tasks and features), how marketing affects your production plans (🤔 understanding market trends and player demographics), and the ethics of being a producer (🎓 ethical considerations and industry standards). This course is designed for anyone interested in the intricate dance of game production.

This course is set up for anyone interested in how video games are produced, from fresh producers to game design and production students and indeed anyone who just wants to have a look behind the curtain of video game production (👀 peek into the process). 📚

We'll go through a set of lectures covering all areas of game production (🚀 art, design, sound, programming, marketing, and more), complete with exercises you can try (✍️ hands-on activities to test your understanding), and at the end we take what we've learned and run through an example project (🎮 real-world application). This can act as a proxy for your own game, providing valuable insights into the process.

By the end of the course you should be equipped to plan and produce your own video game in a conscientious way (✅ with confidence), aware of and now able to avoid all the pitfalls and problems most teams have to experience for themselves. 🛡️

Lifetime access to this course is yours for one fee (💰 save money while you learn!), and the knowledge shared by Derek Patterson will help you make your own projects in a safer, less risky way (🌟 learn from experience).

🛠️ What this course ISN'T:

• We won't be focusing on the technical aspects of BUILDING a game (∅ not here!), as there are other excellent courses on platforms like Udemy that specialize in using Unity or Unreal to build games. 👨‍💻👩‍💻
• This course is all about the PLANNING phase (🗓️ planning and strategy) of game production, equipping you with the knowledge to make informed decisions before the first line of code is written.
