Game Development With: Unity

Unity is a game engine that allows developers to more easily and quickly create video games. It uses a visual editor so changes can be seen in real-time. Games are built using components that are added to game objects in a scene to determine their functionality. Unity supports 3D and 2D games across many platforms and uses JavaScript, C#, and Boo as scripting languages. It has both free and paid versions available to download from their website. Developers work with assets, scenes, game objects, and components in the Unity editor interface to design and build their games.

o Easier & Faster

 Visual editor – see changes in real-


time
o Interactive & Rapid prototyping

 Component-based – functionality built


out of smaller pieces
o Modular & Extensible

Scene
• Unity games are divided into scenes
• Scenes are empty spaces...
• ...that can be filled with game objects
Game Object
• Everything inside a scene is a game object
• Game objects also start out empty and do
nothing...

?
Game Object
• ...but by adding components to them they can
become anything!
Component
 Each component adds a piece of
functionality to the game object

 The combination of all components


defines what the game object is

Let’s see some examples!


The Transform Component
 Where?
 Which direction?
 How large?
Rendering Components
 What to draw? (mesh filter)
 How to draw? (mesh renderer)
Physics Components
 Is solid? (collider)
 Moves? (rigid body)
The Script Component
 Adds custom behavior
Other Components
 Light
 Camera
 Text mesh
 Audio listener & source
 Particle system
 Skybox
 …and many more.
How to create Game Objects
 Create an empty game object and
manually add components to it
 Choose one of the default game
objects
