- Become confident in the fundamentals and features of Unity in line with Unity 6
- Create a playable game prototype in Unity―a working first-person shooter game prototype
It’s the ability to write custom C# scripts for behaviors and game mechanics that really takes Unity the extra mile. That’s where this book will help you as a new programmer!
Harrison Ferrone, in this eighth edition of the bestselling series, will take you through the core concepts of programming and the C# language from scratch, while building an engaging and playable game prototype in Unity 6.
You’ll get to grips with the fundamentals of object-oriented programming (OOP) and the Unity engine with lots of code samples, exercises, and tips to go beyond the book with your work. You’ll write C# scripts for simple game mechanics, perform procedural programming, and add complexity to your games by introducing intelligent enemies and damage-dealing projectiles. You’ll also explore the underlying mechanics of Unity game development, including game design, lighting basics, player movement, camera controls, collisions, and more with every passing chapter.
