Unity 3D Coding Class

We'll be going over getting started with Unity - ensuring everything is set up and starting to learn a bit about creating things in the editor!

This lesson focuses mostly on creating primitive objects in Unity, and beginning to touch on adding movement and physics interactions to our games. We'll also learn a bit about graphics, creating some basic materials for our objects!

In order to give our player a better view of the scene, we'll be focusing today on how to tie the camera to the player, as well as giving our player something to do - collecting pickups with trigger volumes!

Today, we'll be going over the User Interface menu - discussing how to show the player a score and other information with heads-up displays!

With our first game finishing up, it's time to talk about how to make MUCH larger areas, ones that feel natural (and not just full of primitive shapes!) Luckily for us, the terrain tool is just what we need!

Today's lesson focuses on how we can create pre-fabricated models (To make it easier to copy complicated objects) - and how we can randomly spawn those objects in!

For our last lecture before final project time, we'll be going over particle systems, and we'll finish up the day by discussing the Unity Documentation - the ideal resource for anyone looking into furthering their Unity knowledge!

Finally, today, we'll discuss Building Our Projects - creating a version of our final projects that can be shared with friends and family, and accessed even by those who have never seen or downloaded the program!
