<DIV STYLE="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><STRONG>Timeline:</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV STYLE="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">A week before the lesson, we will be taking a vote on what type of game we'll be creating. That is, if you really want us to make a Flappy Bird clone, or a simple turn-based strategy game, then we'll do it in front of you and teach you how!</DIV>
<DIV STYLE="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"></DIV>
<DIV STYLE="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">During the first half we will go through all of the Unity3D basics and get you up to speed and productive, and have you start on our game we'll be making from scratch. The second half will be a pre-prepared intensive, live coding session where we'll explain every step and the reasoning behind it.<BR><BR></DIV>
<DIV STYLE="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">The last stretch of the workshop will be a freeform coding improvisation where students will make suggestions on what we should add to the game, which we'll implement in front of you!</DIV>
<DIV STYLE="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"></DIV>
<DIV STYLE="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">And lastly, we<SPAN STYLE="line-height: 1.5;">will hold extra hours after in which you are free to ask us any questions whatsoever!</SPAN></DIV>
<DIV STYLE="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><SPAN STYLE="line-height: 1.5;"><BR></SPAN></DIV>

<P STYLE="margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.670588); font-family: Whitney, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">A laptop with Unity installed. Go to the site and click download. We'll be using the free version of Unity. If you want to use Pro or the Pro trial, that's completely fine too.</P>
<P STYLE="margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.670588); font-family: Whitney, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;"><A STYLE="display: inline; cursor: pointer; color: #8073a7; text-decoration: none;" HREF="http://www.unity3d.com/" TARGET="_blank" REL="nofollow">Unity3D</A></P>

<P STYLE="margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.670588); font-family: Whitney, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">It's huge, don't expect to be able to download and install it here. If you don't have it, you'll seriously be missing out, though you can still come. Open it at least once to make sure it works, too! I'll try to help anyone troubleshoot before we start.<SPAN STYLE="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 1.6em;"></SPAN></P>
<P STYLE="margin: 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.670588); font-family: Whitney, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px;">Again,</P>
