University of North Carolina Greensboro - Racing Games w/ Unity & YouTube Creators

Blast off in making your first 3D Mario Kart® and Crash Team Racing® style game! Design your own tracks and customize your karts and characters. Using Unity, a professional 3D game development software, students will combine their creations into their own kart racing game that they can play with friends and family. Participate in Esports League races against other schools across the country with a chance to have their tracks featured in the Black Rocket master build of the game! Then, explore the variety of content and personalities that exist on YouTube and how to find your own niche. Find your voice and leave your mark on the world; it’s time to start a career as the next YouTube star! Develop your on-camera presence, your own channel branding, and professional editing skills. Take home a plan for launching your own channel with the content created in class! Student projects will be available on a password protected Black Rocket website to share with friends and family.
