7. What is Unity?
• Unity is
• A game engine and ecosystem
• Supports more platforms than any other publically available tool
• Used by hobbyists & students, up to major studios
• Unity is not
• A 2D image or vector graphic creation tool (Photoshop, gimp)
• A 3D modelling environment*
• It does have a built in terrain system
• Also supports third party plugins that enable some 3D modelling (ProBuilder)

8. Module Overview
• Intro & Interface
• Game Objects and Components
• Prefabs and Packages
• Architecture
• 2D Assets
• 3D Assets
• Game Demo

9. Features/Capabilities
• AAA Games Quality
• Editor for scene (level assembly & in-editor game play
• Physics
• Programming with C#, JavaScript & Boo
• 2D & 3D Support
• Audio
• Particles (dust, water, snow, smoke etc)

10. Assets Store

11. Its all about the scene
• Think of a scene as a level
• Game is a collection of 1-> many scenes
• Scenes are Included in build
• Can have many test scenes not in final build

12. Game Objects and Components

13. Game Objects
• Near everything in game scene is GameObjects
• Simply name, tag, transform
• Transform is very important
Game
Objects
3D
Models
Particles
Lights
sprites

14. Components make things happen
• GameObjects come to life via Components
• Includes
• Mesh Renderers
• Sprite Renderers
• Audio
• Cameras
• Physics Behavior
• Particle systems
• Scripts (your code)

15. Prefabs and Unity packages
• prefabs allow reuse across (and within) scenes
• Objects will turn blue in hierarchy
• Update .prefab = update every instance in project scenes
• Unity packages allow reuse across projects
• Assets store downloads are actually.unitypackage files
• Can be imported just by double clicking

16. Unity's Architecture
• Major Components
• Editor
• Mono Develop
• Game Engine
• Editor
• Can play test game (play mode)
• Can extend easily

17. Project Structure
• Assets
• Always top level folder in Unity Editor
• Every file you bring into your project, prefabs, art, audio and more.
• Library
• Local cache for imported assets & metadata for assets.
• Project Settings
• Stores settings from Edit -> Project Settings
• Temp/Obj
• Used for temporary files during the build process from Mono and Unity

18. Physics Engine
• 3D Physics engine NVIDA PhysX Physics
• Licensed by Unity, Unreal engine, Gamebryo and more
• 2D Physics via Box2D
• 2D physics generally much faster
• Used by Unity, Construct, Game Maker and more

19. 2D Assets
Types of 2D Art
• These are created with tools:
• User Interface (UI)
• Sprites, tiles, and other pixel art
• Type and fonts
These need a pipeline:
• Scenery / worlds
• Characters
• Animation
• Video

20. Types
• Vector
• Drawing
• Pixel Art

21. 2D Assets creation tools
• Adobe Photoshop
• Illustrator
• The Gimp
• Sprite Editor
• Adobe Flash

22. 3D
• Shaders
• Vertices
• Poly (low & High)
• Texturing systems

23. 3D Assets creation tools
• 3D Studio Max
• Maya 3D
• Blender
• Zbrush
• Daz 3D

24. Demo
Flappy Bird Game
