Just Getting Started
If you want to work with the Unity Game Engine, there are a few things you need to do before you start. First, you need to download the Unity Hub. This gives you access to a host of online resources such as learning tools and videos, online forums, FAQs and much more. This is also were you will find the download for the Unity Editor.
It’s a large download, so be prepared to wait. Once you’ve downloaded the editor, open the Unity Hub and select the projects tab on the left. From there you will see a button in the to right hand corner labeled “New project”. clicking this button with initialize the Unity Editor and create a new project.
From here you’ll have several options. chose the project template that best suits your needs. Bottom right corner, name your project and select the location where it will be saved. Now click create!
You should see something similar to the image below, depending on which template you used. Take a minute to familiarize your self with the different functions and features.
Google is your friend here. the resources are abundant online. If you have a problem or question, I can almost guarantee that someone else has figured it out already. If you are one of those people that like to read the owner’s manual for everything, Unity has one of those too.
the sky is the limit. Now lets get started!
