This specialized course is aimed at game developers who want to enhance their 2D games with advanced visual effects using shader programming. It’s suitable for those with experience in game development and basic linear algebra who want to take their game’s graphics to the next level.
In this course, you’ll learn the fundamentals of shader programming using GLSL (OpenGL Shading Language) within the context of 2D game development. We’ll cover topics such as creating custom texture effects, dynamic lighting in 2D, particle systems, and post-processing effects. The course also touches on optimizing shader performance for various devices.
By mastering shader programming for 2D games, you’ll be able to create visually stunning effects that can make your game stand out in the crowded 2D game market. These skills allow you to implement effects that were previously only possible in 3D games, adding a new dimension of visual appeal to your 2D creations.
