The course is pretty good; however, I believe some stuff might be outdated. The CurvedShader does not work as described/provided.

The course was good and I really enjoyed it. The content is good and I found it quite satisfying to follow. Some criticisms: No explanation on how to setup Visual Studio. I was good as I am familiar, but this is a beginner course. Some topics were brushed over and went through quickly, again not the best for an absolute beginner. The Ad integration is outdated and doesn't work. Takes some extra coding to get this aspect to work. Should be updated or an addendum added somewhere. Overall a fun course and good introduction to Unity for someone with some programming experience, wouldn't recommend for an absolute beginner.

Don't waste your time on this. Instructor does not respond to questions, the information is sorely OUTDATED and for the most part not compatible or match description of 2020 version of Unity. Hard to follow and does not give good explanations on what little information is usable. Had to repeatedly go search the web to understand what was really needed.
