Description
A good game needs great graphics, nice music and cool characters - and of course a well designed game user interface!I created this course to help the indie developer community to create clean and engaging UI designs for their games. Even if you are not a designer, you can just download this free software, and follow my course! :)During the course we will use the amazing open-source software Inkscape. Inkscape is a vector graphical software, which makes it perfect for 2D game element design.During the course we will learn the theory of game UI design, and we will create:several icons and icon setsbuttons and menus in various styles2 versions of UI design for a fantasy game, 2 versions of UI for a space shooter, and one version for a casual gem stone gameWe will also draw an icon set for a ninja game - that lesson is a free preview, check it out!Although this is a beginner game UI course, a basic Inkscape knowledge is good to have. I stop and explain every single step I make, but you have to work on your own confidence and skill level in Inkscape.Important: We will create all the buttons and icons during the course, however, recreating the game screens shown in the preview and used as a base to design on during the lectures are NOT part of this course! Also, this is a UI course, we are not working on the UX part of he design.
