Abstract

This is a great time to learn to develop games. Unity has emerged as one of the most popular game engines for game developers, and Unity Technologies continues to make dramatic changes to make Unity more accessible to indie developers. There are now more platforms to which Unity games can be ported (meaning it can be used on many devices), the Asset Store is available for centralized game resources, and Unity provides outstanding support that has expanded to include professional assessment and feedback for your game. There is even an entire new (at the time of writing) division that collaborates with developers and publishes games. Making games is an amazing experience and provides even more bragging rights than a high score or near-impossible headshot. Welcome to the fun!
