Interesting course
Advantages: Feedback from mentors, the opportunity to address any questions during training. Disadvantages: There are no subtitles for the video. I chose the Unity Game Developer course. I dreamed of creating games, and in the end I decided to try taking courses. There is a lot of useful information and interesting tasks. I liked the assignments, there is written information, feedback from mentors...

I recommend the courses.
Advantages: Convenient training time, large volume of webinars, availability of information. Disadvantages: I didn't notice any cons. I'm taking the Unity Game Developer course. The topic of “game engines” became interesting. I wanted to try to create my own game. I was looking for a suitable platform to study the course. I decided to take a course on game development in Unity from SkillFactory. Studying takes place in free time from school...

It's better than many regular universities
Advantages: You can take classes at any time, 24/7 support, plenty of time to complete tasks. Disadvantages: To work you need a computer of at least average power and sufficient memory. I bought a course on game development using the Unity game engine, this training format is completely suitable for me. I've always liked games and everything connected with them, and when I saw on YouT...
