Tutorial: Overview of

Unity

Unity Download Assistant The Unity Download Assistant is a small executable program (approximately 1 MB in size) which lets you select which components of the Unity Editor you want to download and install.

Hierarc hy Scene Inspect or Project

Game

1. Open Unity **Setting up the project
2. Creating a new project** a. File -> new project b. Name it, save it on desktop

1. Search for the assets “Space Shooter Tutorial” and click on the results
2. Download the assets

Setting up the project

4. Importing assets (make sure to select all)

Setting up the project

**5. Select scene

6. Save scene** a. Note “untitled” at top b. File -> save scene as c. Create a directory _scene d. Save the scene as “main” in this directory

The player GameObject

8. Setting up the Player GameObject using mesh models, colliders and other built-in components a. Select scene b. Select Models c. Drag player ship onto the scene
