Overview of this book

It's the ability to write custom C# scripts for behaviors and game mechanics that really takes Unity the extra mile. That's where this book can help you as a new programmer! Harrison Ferrone, in this seventh edition of the bestselling series will take you through the building blocks of programming and the C# language from scratch while building a fun and playable game prototype in Unity. This book will teach you the fundamentals of OOPs, basic concepts of C#, and Unity engine with lots of code samples, exercises and tips to go beyond the book with your work. You will write C# scripts for simple game mechanics, perform procedural programming, and add complexity to your games by introducing intelligent enemies and damage-dealing projectiles. You will explore the fundamentals of Unity game development, including game design, lighting basics, player movement, camera controls, collisions, and more with every passing chapter. Note: The screenshots in the book display the Unity editor in full-screen mode for a comprehensive view. Users can easily reference color versions of images by downloading them from the GitHub repository or the graphics bundle linked in the book.

Diving deeper

While we’ve done a good amount of work with variables, types, methods, and classes throughout this book, there are still areas of C# that were left unexplored.

Learning a new skill shouldn’t be a simple bombardment of information without context; it should be a careful stack of bricks, one on top of the other, each building on the foundational knowledge already acquired.

Here are some of the concepts you’ll want to look into as you progress in your programming journey, regardless of whether it’s with Unity or diving into .NET with C#:

  • Optional and dynamic variables
  • Debugging approaches
  • Concurrent programming
  • Networking and RESTful APIs
  • Recursion and reflection
  • Design patterns
  • Functional programming

As you revisit the code we’ve written throughout this book, don’t just think about what we accomplished, but also about how the different parts of our project work...
