Surprise #3: Free Chapters and New Unity Tutorials!

We’ll also be serving up some brand-new Unity tutorials and free chapters from Unity AR & VR by Tutorials this week to get you building professional-quality Unity apps in next to no time:

  • Introduction to Unity: Getting Started — Part I: Today, Unity boasts more game development than any other game technology. And with support for almost 30 platforms including mobile, virtual reality, desktop and console, Unity isn’t just a good place to start, it’s the perfect place to start.
  • Introduction to Unity: Getting Started — Part II: This tutorial will give you an overview of Unity’s various systems, and you’ll assemble a game from pre-created assets. You’ll learn about Unity’s subsystems in depth while you create your own assets and write your own scripts.
  • Advanced VR Interactions: In this chapter preview from Unity AR & VR by Tutorials, you’ll build a virtual museum of awesomeness and learn how to create tooltips for objects and controllers, fix objects to your controllers, use joints to accurately pick up objects, snap objects into place and use haptic feedback!
  • Advanced VR Movement: Following on from Advanced VR Interactions, this chapter preview from Unity AR & VR by Tutorials teleports you around an obstacle field, where you’ll learn how to use destination points to cover large distances, use fixed positions for teleport locations, use body physics, and climb objects!
  • VR in Interactive Media: In this final chapter preview from Unity AR & VR by Tutorials, you’ll see that you can not only use Unity to make games with VR functionality but also to create interactive media. You’ll learn about displaying 360° videos; simulating scary situations in VR to overcome them; leveraging VR for virtual museums; using VR in architecture; and more!.
