Unity2D Professional Development From A to Z Build 10 Games

Explore abstract thinking and game object concepts in Unity by defining points as objects, detailing attributes, state, and behaviors, and using methods or functions to change color or destroy.

Explore how to create multiple game objects through instantiation by using classes, instances, and objects, and assign per-object attributes such as color in Unity.

Explore Unity's hierarchy browser to access child components, modify canvas text via scripting with function arguments, and implement if-else logic to drive game behavior.

Explore the scope of if statements, return type versus void, and how private and public methods affect access in Unity scripts, including calling functions and returning strings.

Learn how to call a function from another function, pass string arguments, handle return values, and debug with print statements to trace concatenation and string manipulation.

Learn how to pass a string from UI to code by using a function argument, and understand how play mode and preferences affect changes in Unity2D.

Hide game objects by tag using arrays and a for loop, retrieve tagged objects, store them in an array, and toggle their active state in Unity.

navigate between Unity scenes by configuring build settings, adding scenes, and naming levels like start and scratch, then load the next scene with a load level script.

Define the game's concept with mockups and flows, identify the main player and environment, and design assets like the player, animation, coins, and boxes using a flat color palette.

Create a new Unity project, set up the first scene and camera for a portrait 10:16 view, and import sprites into the sprites folder for future animation.

Add a rigid body to the player to apply gravity and physics. Add box colliders to the player, the box, and the coin to enable collisions among them.

Learn to add rigidbodies and colliders for physics, create a C# player controller with ground checks and jump force, and integrate sounds, coins, and score UI in Unity 2D.

Enable collision detection with coins by using tags and triggers, detect coin collisions in on trigger enter, increment the score, update the score text mesh, and destroy collected coins.

Learn how to design a Unity2D game interface from Photoshop assets, organize layers and hierarchy, and implement a level slider with a lock/unlock system and star indicators.

Design responsive panels in Unity by using a canvas as the main UI container, setting anchors and gizmos to the border of elements, and nesting panels for scalable layouts.

Design the main panel of the Unity game by creating the slider item with the main image, status, and stars. Preserve aspect and anchors to keep the panel responsive.

Learn to convert a class to json and back using a design utility, then save and retrieve data as json for permanent storage in Unity.

Learn to maintain player preferences in Unity by saving JSON-serialized objects to permanent storage, using keys like level, with has-key checks during load.

Learn to unlock, lock, and reset level stars in a Unity 2D game, using player preferences and the M.Z. storage manager to update the UI.

Design the main slider panel with a horizontal slider content, add a scroll rect and mask to constrain overflow, and preserve the slide item aspect ratio.

Create a dynamic 2D slider in Unity by computing each item width from the container, multiplying by item count, and updating the rect transform, anchors, and pivot to center the content.

Learn to create a dynamic Unity2D slider with left and right buttons using a coroutine and lerp, controlling start and end positions, animation time, and an animating flag.

Set the canvas to world space so the UI adapts to all screen sizes, then bind the slider to player preferences with a binding script for portable, future-ready games.

Bind the player preferences to the UI by wiring the slider content, assigning level IDs, and using a storage manager to apply settings across levels, including getting components in children.

Bind slides from storage by reading level data with the storage manager, looping to create M.Z. items, and binding them to levels, while updating the Lovell's scene manager.
