¿How to start with Unity?

Question

I really want to learn Unity specially for 2D game development, but when I see official tutorials and samples they use mostly 3D and there ir a lot of variety. So I would like to know if I shouls first learn about 3D and after that 2D? And what type of games would be the best for beginner learning?

Answer 1

I'd suggest by going to the official tutorial website, there they have lots of great content, or go to youtube, and search up "holistic3d" it's a really good channel, taught by a professor, and it's also great. that's how I got started off, and I am currently doing awesome! once you do that, unity3d is so easy, it's like coding in Scratch!

Answer 2

if you want 2d only, try game maker.

Answer 3

on the unity site there are also 2d tutorials but I wouldn't recommend you those, try searching on youtube or sth

it's definetly not a problem if you start with 2d

be sure to know either c# or javascript if you want to make some good interaction and pretty animations

Answer 4

Thank you so much both of you, I'll look for all that and then I'll see what to do😄

Answer 8
