            <p>Ever stared at your phone, playing a simple game, and thought, "Hey, I could totally make something like this"? You absolutely can. Mobile game development is one of the most accessible entry points into the gaming industry, but it is a whole different beast compared to making games for PCs or consoles. Instead of worrying about massive graphics cards and complex keyboard setups, you are designing for touchscreens, shorter play sessions, and hardware that fits right in your pocket. Going solo as an indie developer means wearing a lot of hats—from designer and programmer to artist and tester—but it also means you have complete creative control over your project. This course is designed to take you from a curious gamer to someone who actually understands how to build, test, and launch their very own mobile title.</p>

<p>We will start by breaking down the game development lifecycle and setting some realistic expectations so you do not burn out before your game even has a start menu. From there, we will dive into the fun stuff: choosing the right game engine (like Unity or Godot), learning the coding basics needed to make things move on screen, and mastering the art of the "core gameplay loop" to keep players hooked. You will also learn how to design intuitive tap-and-swipe controls that do not frustrate players, how to test your game on an actual phone, and finally, how to navigate the process of getting your creation onto the Google Play Store or Apple App Store. By the time you finish, you will have a clear roadmap and the essential skills needed to turn your game ideas into a playable reality.</p>
