This course will be helpful if:You have basic knowledge of programming and GodotYou want to take your prototypes/games to the next levelYou want to make games more pleasing to playYou feel like your game is boring but don't know how to change itPlease note that we're focusing on the game juice in this course. I won't go over the fundamentals of programming or even Godot. The first time we're facing a new technique, I try to explain it in detail to make it as clear as possible, but you're expected to know a bit about how Godot works. Also, game juice touches on a lot of complicated topics such as animation, visual effects and sound effects. This course is not here to teach you animations or visual effects. Still, I go over some fundamentals and I try to give you as much information as possible. Just don't expect to learn animation or VFX through this course. This course was made using Godot 4.0. It was the latest stable version of Godot at the time of creating the course. It should be compatible with all the future versions of Godot. In one chapter, I'm using Godot 3.5 to demonstrate how to tuse glow, as it was not implemented in 4.0. Multiple lessons are available to for you to preview for free. Please take a look at those videos before enrolling to know if this course is right for you!
