In this Zenva course, you’ll dive into Defold, master how it works from scratch, and also explore essential fundamentals with the Lua scripting language.

This Learning Pathway is designed to take you from beginner to expert in using the Defold game engine. You'll learn Defold architecture, character control, collision detection, interactive objects, level design, and Lua game logic. These courses are project-based, feature video, interactive quizzes and source code.

Through this course, you’ll explore the foundations of the Defold game engine from start to finish – including how to work with Lua scripting to program your game logic. These skills will give you the building blocks for developing your dream games with Defold and set you up for success in other genres.

This course teaches you to create a 2D platformer with Defold, covering tilemaps, player animations, collectables, enemy behavior, sound effects, and gameplay flow. Basic Defold and Lua knowledge is required. You'll build a complete game and gain skills for other genres.

This course teaches you to build a farming RPG in Defold, covering player control, crop systems, day progression, sprite atlases, data management, and UI design. Basic Defold and Lua knowledge is needed. Gain skills for advanced and complex projects.

This course covers building a complete 2D action RPG in Defold, teaching core mechanics like player control, enemy AI, dynamic cameras, health bars, scene management, and spawning systems.

This course covers building a complete block breaker game in Defold, teaching physics-based gameplay, paddle and ball mechanics, and procedural block generation using scripting.

This short Udemy course introduces Defold by building a small playable game in about an hour. It covers collections, game objects, input, collisions, and simple gameplay logic, making it a solid first step into Defold.

Through this course, you will program a spaceship that moves through space. This will be a great opportunity to learn the basics of the Defold engine

In this module, we’ll reuse the spaceship from the previous lesson to learn how to navigate through a field of asteroids, avoid collisions, and shoot them down. It’s a great opportunity to learn how collisions work in Defold and to continue practicing with factories

In this module, you’ll learn how to use Defold’s tilemap system to create a small environment, and you’ll be introduced to the concept of modules.
