About This Course

Not a Fixed Course. A Flexible Curriculum.

These eight modules represent the full teaching plan — the complete body of knowledge covered across private Unity sessions. This is not a rigid schedule that every student follows in the same order. It is a curriculum that gets shaped around you.

In the first session Bahman assesses your current knowledge and goals. A beginner might start at Module 1 and work through all eight. An experienced developer might jump straight to Module 6 for C# depth. A student preparing for the Unity Certified Professional exam gets a targeted path focused on exam-specific gaps.

🎯

Tailored to You

Sessions adapt to your experience level, pace, and project goals.

Module 02

Open World & Terrain Design

Learn how Unity’s terrain system works and how to build expansive open world environments from scratch. By the end of this module you will have a fully navigable landscape with terrain height, layers, trees, and grass — the foundation for any open world game.

How to shape an open world in Unity

Getting familiar with Unity windows

Aligning windows for better view

Using the Height tool to raise terrain

Using the Stamp tool to add geometry

Using the Lower and Raise tool

Using the Smooth Height tool

Adding texture layers to the ground

Adding trees to terrain

Adding grass and mesh detail

Creating terrain layers

Creating trees with leaves

Module 03

Characters & Mixamo

Understand how game characters are created, rigged, and animated. This module takes you from analysing great character design all the way through to importing a fully animated character into Unity using Mixamo — Adobe’s free character and animation library.

Hiring characters for your games

Analysing games with great characters

Analysing games with poor characters

How game characters are created

Character creation software — Maya

What is Mixamo

Creating a Mixamo account

Browsing and selecting characters

Selecting and previewing animations

Testing a character with animations

Downloading characters and animations

Importing characters into Unity

Module 04

Character Movement & Animation

Bring your character to life. This module covers the full pipeline from importing a character into Unity through to realistic physics, animation control, and keyboard-driven movement. By the end your character will walk, run, and interact with the terrain.

Making characters alive and responsive

Adding a Ragdoll to the character

Adding an Animation Controller

Using prefabricated Animation Controllers

Adding a Character Controller component

Writing character movement code

Testing character movement on terrain

Module 05

Artificial Intelligence

Add intelligent non-player characters to your game world. This module covers Unity’s NavMesh system — the tool that lets NPCs navigate your environment automatically — and the C# code that makes them follow, avoid, and react to the player.

Adding NPCs to the game

Adding NavMesh to terrain

Adding an NPC character

Adding a NavMesh Agent to NPC

Writing NPC follow-player code

Adding obstacles to pathfinding

Tuning NPC parameters

Module 06

Introduction to 3D animations in Unity

Animating object movement

Animating object rotation

Introduction to the Timeline window

Adding and sequencing audio in Timeline

Module 07

C# Programming Foundations

The core programming module. Whether you are writing your first line of code or coming from another language, this module builds a solid C# foundation specific to Unity development. Every concept is taught through practical game examples — not abstract exercises.

What is a variable

Main variable types in Unity

String variables — storing text

Int variables — whole numbers

Float variables — decimal numbers

Bool variables — true and false

If statements — conditional logic

For loops — counting and repeating

While loops — condition-based

Do While loops — execute then check

Switch statements — multiple conditions

Enums — named constant sets

Module 08

Advanced C# for Unity

Where solid C# knowledge meets Unity’s architecture. This module covers the object-oriented patterns and Unity-specific tools used in professional game development — including concepts tested directly in the Unity Certified Professional Programmer exam.

Inheritance — extending classes

Interfaces — contracts between classes

Scriptable Objects — data architecture

Finding GameObjects at runtime

Events and Listeners — decoupled communication

Exam Preparation

Unity Certified Professional Programmer

The Unity Certified Professional Programmer exam is the highest technical credential Unity Technologies awards. Bahman holds this certification — awarded October 2025 — and can coach you through the full exam syllabus after you complete the main curriculum.

Exam prep sessions target your specific knowledge gaps — not a one-size-fits-all review. Bahman assesses where you are and builds a targeted study plan from there.
