We have recently finished our first set of tutorials for making games with Unity. Movies are from 10-15 minutes in length and cover the following topics:
- Welcome to Unity!
- Javascript Principles
- Connecting Scripts
- GUI Functions
- Terrain
- Particle Systems
- 3D Modeling and Importation
- Packages and Prefabs
- Animation and Audio
- Tanks Example
The above are just the basic set. We should have the advanced set done by the end of June, and the genre-specific set done by the end of July. However, the basic set is available now.
The prices are $9.95 per recording if purchased separately, and $49.95 for the full set of ten recordings. Each recording comes with all scripts gone over during the recording, and the full basic set comes with the entire project folder, along with all models used, all sounds used, all the scripts even if they weren't referenced, and two example games.
To request a free tutorial download, feel free to use the link at the top of this page. To order, just use the Buy Now links on the right side of the page. Payments are handled by PayPal.
These are the recordings I'll be doing over the next couple months:
