About Create engaging 2D Game UI with Inkscape!
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 sets
buttons and menus in various styles
2 versions of UI design for a fantasy game,
2 versions of UI for a space shooter,
and one version for a casual gem stone game We 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.
What You Will Learn?
- Create fresh User Interface for 2D video games with Inkscape .
- Create several types of icons and buttons for your game UI .
- Use Inkscape on a higher level to create what you need for your game (i.e. menu items, buttons, icons).
