Bored yet?

I understand that you might feel a bit frustrated now. We are learning a lot about theory, going through examples, and it isn't exciting at all. I promised fun and we will get there,but I must make sure that you understand the fundamentals of OOP. This knowledge will help us design a cool–looking game that is coded using clean practices. Code can be good and bad, and it can be written in a way that is easily understood by other developers or it might be unmanageable and messy.

By learning how to organize your code, you absorb and use good practices that will help you to be a top developer who is proud of their code. So stay focused! Let's go through the theory and make an awesome game later.

"Any fool can write code that a computer can understand. Good programmers write code that humans can understand."

- Martin Fowler

Grzegorz Lukosek

Grzegorz Lukosek

Greg Lukosek was born and raised in the Upper Silesia region of Poland. When he was about 8 years old, his amazing parents bought him and his brother a Commodore C64. That was when his love of programming started. He would spend hours writing simple basic code, and when he couldn't write it on the computer directly, he used a notepad. Greg completed his mechanical engineering diploma at ZSTiO Meritum— Siemianowice Slaskie, Poland. He has learned all his programming skills through determination and hard work at home. Greg met the love of his life, Kasia, in 2003, which changed his life forever. They both moved to London in search of adventure and decided to stay there. He started work as a 3D artist and drifted away from programming for some years. Deep inside, he still felt the urge to come back to game programming. During his career as a 3D artist, he discovered Unity and adopted it for an interactive visualizations project. At that very moment, he started programming again. His love for programming overcomes his love for 3D graphics. Greg ditched his 3D artist career and came back to writing code professionally. He is now doing what he really wanted to do since he was 8 years old—developing games. These days, Greg lives in a little town called Sandy in the UK with Kasia and their son, Adam.
