Description
This course is designed to take you from Unity beginner to game developer! I'll show you the process I go through when creating games in unity starting from scratch! from creating a project all the way to a final build.
Using the free art assets provided you will construct your moonbase then learn how to pick up objects using your virtual hands, shoot laser guns, destroy asteroids and add user interface elements to enhance the experience!
We will create some simple C# scripts that create all the systems behind the game, such as spawning asteroids, managing the player score and controlling the timer. Then to round off the project we add some nice finishing particle effects.
This course is going to teach you the following topics:
Where to find Unity, and how to install it
Configuring Unity for VR
Using Unity's XR interaction system
Dealing with art assets and 3D models
Lighting 3D environments
C# scripts to create custom functionality
Building our application to the Oculus Quest
User interface systems
C# Game manager to control our application
C# Event system
Adding audio to our game
Particle Systems
Controlling game objects through C#
Post-processing
Building to our Oculus device
This course uses unity 2019.3 and XR interaction toolkit version 0.9.4.
Everything is designed to be a beginner level so that you can follow along and create your own game with ease. Even intermediate users of Unity will find this useful to learn VR application development
