It depends on how much pre-requisite you already know programming, graphic design or audio generation, or editing.
When I started, I didn’t have any knowledge of graphic design or audio management, but yes, I was at least able to have the logic being implemented as a program.
Here is the breakdown of how it takes 10 days to build a basic gaming app:
- Two days to install and setup android SDK, ndk, and unity.
- Three days to learn basic unity features like canvas sprites and how to do programming using that.
- Three days to implement and test out complete game along with logical things
- Two days to publish the game on the play store

On a personal level, I believe it’s up to individual’s work efficiency in how much time they can develop a game engine with Unity. Unity has its perks, and it is the best game engine platform for both beginners and experienced game developers. Glownight Games is one of the best Unity Game Development Companies.
