This series we're going to introduce you to unity and it's interface. 2
It's a quick series. 3
We're not going to be working on a game just yet. 4
But instead we want to make sure that you're comfortable with some of the basic tools and UI elements 5
that you need to be successful in later training series 6
when you get started down the road of game development. 7
The first thing that comes up is what kind of game engine do I use. 8
I've been in the game industry for over 15 years and one of the things I've found and been privileged 9
to is use every engine on the market. 10
Unity itself is one of the strongest engines is out there the most portable to different devices the 11
most open to programmers level designers and artists. 12
The tools are friendly the interface is intuitive and very quick to get up to speed with and use one 13
of the advantages to using unity not only from its tool perspective but also from its environment or 14
community and development. 15
What we're looking at here just to kind of help you out if you go to the three that come there their 16
site. 17
You'll notice this is going to be the landing page for everything that you're going to want to go to 18
. 19
One of the things we'll take a quick look at is if this is a good engine do people develop on it. 20
If you go to their showcases notice that in the showcases. 21
Yes people develop on it. 22
Triple-A companies develop on it. 23
Indeed developers work with its students work with it. 24
This system the tools in place here. 25
This is going to be your your first choice your last choice when it comes to making games making interactive 26
applications to making even up to making web sites forums anything that you want to actually create 27
but also something that you're looking for to create multiple platforms and going to the mall will going 28
to console's going to different standalone devices. 29
Linux and Mac and PC and ities showcase if you go into just looking at games alone you'll notice that 30
games this is everything from 3D games to to the games. 31
This is a really great spot if you're looking for. 32
What does the engine produce and what can be done with it. 33
What can push its limits what can be done with a large team what can be done with a small team. 34
If you notice here you're going to see large companies small companies all over creating and developing 35
with it. 36
It's not only a good tool to learn just for yourself but if you're looking for full time employment 37
the game industry. 38
This is definitely one of the leading tools that you would want to learn and understand the growing 39
your skill and this is definitely going to be a plus for it. 40
So going through here though just to kind of cap off with the who can use unity What's the benefit of 41
it. 42
Just the game here on this page alone should really show you and provide you the confidence that the 43
direction you're getting into the direction you want to go with this engine is a really good choice 44
