After deciding to use the Unity Game engine known for its flexibility and wealth of support, I looked around for some tutorials to get started. Installing Unity took a couple of minutes, and it’s laid out in a very intuitive and user friendly way. I’ve used some pretty bare bones tools during production, and it was impressive to see how much effort went into making things accessible.
I recommend checking out this online game development course from Michigan state university. https://www.coursera.org/learn/game-development. The course is free to audit, and it got me up and running with the Unity environment in hours. There are lots of tutorials online as well, though there is a lot to sift through out there. I’ll post a list of ones I found useful on the sidebar when i get a minute to organize them.
