Season Details

Base Ops: Math is where your game-development journey truly begins. No matter your background, this course gives you the complete mathematical foundation required for modern game programming, engine logic, and simulation work. Designed for absolute beginners and returning learners alike, this module strips away the classroom feeling and replaces it with practical, game-ready math—the kind you use every day when building movement, physics, AI, rendering, and gameplay systems. It’s the first step in the Base Ops series: Math → Core → Systems Together, they form the “ground floor” beneath Engine Ops and Game Ops, giving you a stable, confident understanding of the fundamentals before you dive into engines and gameplay. You don’t need to love math to begin—this course is built to make it click, make it applicable, and make it empowering. --- What You’ll Learn Vectors & Space Movement, direction, collisions, steering, camera work. Algebra for Mechanics The backbone of damage formulas, movement curves, and interactions. Geometry for Worlds Distances, angles, projections, hit tests, visibility. Functions & Curves Jump arcs, easing, timing, acceleration, animation blending. Trigonometry Made Useful Rotation, targeting, camera orbit, navigation. Physics Foundations Forces, velocity, friction, gravity, momentum. Problem-Solving Pattern Training How to think through math in a game context, step-by-step. Every topic is framed for game development, not abstract theory. --- Who It’s For Beginners who want a smooth, no-intimidation start Self-taught developers who want to fill gaps Programmers preparing for Engine Ops Designers/technical artists improving systems literacy Anyone building a long-term game-dev career and wants a real foundation --- Why It’s Comprehensive Because it covers everything you actually need—neither bloated nor shallow. You walk away with a complete, fully usable mathematical toolkit that supports: ✔ Engine Ops (low-level systems) ✔ Game Ops (gameplay building) ✔ Future specializations (AI, physics, graphics) This is your one-stop math foundation for a modern game career. --- What You Leave With A confident command of the math behind games. The ability to read, understand, and write mechanics with clarity. And the assurance that nothing in game development is “too advanced” anymore—you now have the tools.
