Create an Android Game from Scratch using AndEngine

In just a few hours, you will create your very own Android game with step-by-step instructions and even publish it!

Want to start with Game Development for Android? This course will jumpstart you into it! In just a few hours, you will develop a game with a step-by-step videocourse!

I´ve uploaded the game you will create on Google Play - search for "MyFirstSpaceShooter". (can´t link it in udemy - sorry!)

In just a few hours of work, you could have your very own game in the Play Store aswell!

You probably want to develop a game - maybe even your first. I was in the exact same situation just two years ago - I created a few simple games already, but nothing fancy. Then I started developing for Android, with the goal to eventually publish it. But that was way harder than I expected it to be!

My first game took about 200 hours of work, even though I already knew Java! My second game even took 300 hours, but it was technically much more advanced. Now I want to help others starting Android game development with less pain and frustration than I had, which is why I created this course. I planned to reduce my 200 hours to just 20 hours of work for you - but because of my experience and a lot of trial and error, I could push that number even further. Now you will have a finished (but expandable!) game within just 2 hours!

A part of why learning AndEngine is so slow is the lack of good tutorials. You'll have a hard time finding a tutorial that really walks you through everything. And even if you find a good tutorial, it is probably outdated or not for your version of AndEngine…

The game you will create is a simple space-invader-like arcade game - but you can choose how it looks like! I have included a set of graphical assets that you can choose from to make the game really yours. (of course, you can also use your own graphics if you have some)

Also, I have added a few text-based guides to help you expand your game with additional features like PowerUps, Leaderboards and more! I will also continue to add more guides - if you are interested in anything specific, just ask!
