Description
In this course, you’ll take your first steps toward incorporating AI into your games. The AI algorithm is the base for path-finding, allowing agents to go from point A to point B in the most optimal way. In the real world, this tool is used in airplanes and cars, but it’s useful in creating more lifelike characters in games. Here, you’ll learn how to use the AI algorithm to make a 2D game in Unity.
