Introduction
Unity is a powerful tool for game
development, suitable for many
game genres, from first­person
shooters to puzzle games.
With its myriad features, including height­mapped terrains, native networking sup­
port, complete physics integration and scripting, Unity can be daunting for newcom­
ers, but mastering its many tools is infinitely rewarding.
This tutorial will walk you through the process of building a complete 3D platform
game level with a third­person perspective view. This includes everything from player
controls, collision detection, some advanced scripting, blob shadows, basic AI, adding
a game HUD, cut­scenes and audio spot effects.
