Learning Path
We've prepared a set of resources to help you hit the ground running with our GamingKit.
Below, you'll find our recommended pathway to learning game development with Unity and integrating blockchain-based functionality into your games.
Unity Fundamentals
If this is your first time creating games, we strongly recommend learning the basics of Unity, such as navigating the editor, creating objects, and scripting with C#.
Unity Essentials
Before you begin, you'll need to download and install Unity Hub; a tool that allows you to download and manage multiple versions of Unity on your computer.
Learn how to navigate the Unity Editor, create and manipulate objects, and build a simple game with basic gameplay by following the Unity Essentials Pathway on Unity Learn.
Programming in Unity
After familiarizing yourself with the Unity Editor, you'll want to learn how to program in Unity.
This will help you understand how to create scripts and behaviors for the items you create in the editor.
We recommend the Junior Programmer Pathway on Unity Learn.
