Turning Laser Defender into My First Attempt at a Full Game (Pt. 2)
* I wouldn’t switch input systems in the middle of design… oops! Next Time in Part 3: Thanks for reading! Next time I'll talk about what was easily the most challenging part of the whole process for me: Pixel Art! Spoiler: Hire a Professional! Below is a link to itch. unity. unity. ” 2. ) 3. com/.
Unity & Visual Studio
Okay- this is what drove me to seek out GameDev.tv’s 2D Unity course in the first place. I didn’t know how to code and I really wanted to start on that piece of the puzzle. So, I dove in head-first! The first thing to say: the more I learn, the more I realize how little I still know.
I was instantly hooked and found a desire to really learn as much as possible. However, I often found myself getting distracted with other pieces: design, art, music, etc… and I “accidentally” took extended breaks from coding. Don’t do this if you can avoid it- you may lose some of what you learned.
This section could easily be several Blog posts on its own, so I’m going to have to be selective and limit myself to a small handful of lessons I found most helpful.
