Game Institute – An Introduction to Unity for Programmers

Info:

The Game Institute is very pleased to roll out an incredibly detailed new video-based workshop that is going to help get programmers up to speed quickly on the Unity game engine. The goal here is to go step-by-step through the development of a full and proper game with practical hands-on instruction.

The primary purpose behind this workshop is to prepare developers for the much more complex game projects that they will be examining as they progress through their training. For example, our new racing game (which has its own workshop of course) would likely be too big a project for most Unity first-timers to take on. This introductory workshop is a perfect way to get up to speed without getting lost.

While this material lays a foundation for the more advanced Unity projects to come, it is also going to be a lot of fun in its own right. For many people, this will be the first time they develop a full game that includes a start screen, simple menus, and even a closing credits sequence.

Whether you’ve used Unity before or not, this workshop will prove to be an enjoyable and informative experience, with a bit of humour and lots of useful tips.
