Let me know if you have any issues or questions, I'll try to help as much as I can!

FAQ:
2. If you're getting an error that says “Can’t add script component ‘player movement’" make sure to not include spaces in your script name and not rename it after creation.
3. Save your script by pressing Ctrl+S everytime you want to go into Unity and test it

Finally a tutorial that shows u how to do it instead of taking shortcuts

I remember trying to do Unity in the past, and I've never gotten too far, because there is so much content... and then I see this video, that shows that the movement code is VERY easy, and, unlike those other tutorials, you actually explain what each thing actually does, allowing me to learn as if I'm watching a legit tutorial, which this video is exactly. This is VERY helpful!

I've watched so many tutorials over the past few weeks and every single one didn't understand what a beginner was, they would go way to fast and didn't explain why they were doing something. this tutorial is a gift from god and i just want to thank you so much

[aidynoconnor]

Thank you for giving such a detailed walkthrough, too many tutorial videos out there just rush through steps, without explained what they're doing, and why they're doing it. Your style of demonstration makes it much easier to follow along and learn from 👍

[hungryyaoguai]

I wish I could like this video a million times! Do you know how long I have been searching for a tutorial that explains things thoroughly and moves at a pace that a beginner like me can follow? This tutorial is actually perfect!
You have earned a subscriber, my friend!

[ripdoxyyy]

The amount of you talking us through it is perfect. Amazing video to start this journey. Thank you so much for your hard work and see you at the end (:

[SamJansson]

I'm very much a beginner, and I've watched so many tutorials recently that just explain how to do something but never why I'm doing it. This was perfect though, pacing was great and I finally understand what's going on! Thank you!

Just downloaded Unity. Was looking for a short and brief tutorial on how it works, but only found hour long ones. Thanks mate for the tutorial, really helped me out.

[mayureshsatao]

Bro, believe me, I was trying to learn unity for months but didn't found any resources which explain stuff with this much simplicity. Keep it Up!

[spongebob]

I am building a video game so my brother can believe in his game design dream. I am also sending him this video when I finish making it, so he can make it himself. Thank you so much for being the beginning of his journey. ❤

I screamed "IT MOVES" when with this tutorial I finally learned how to type simple controls. You don't even have an idea how excited I am now. Thank youuuu

[sassuskrassus]

im new to Unity that was a very good Tutorial

btw the one mistake with the Vektor3 was pretty neat because now i definitely know what the number is standing for, and probably wont forget it compared to other things i learned

[addalad]

This is top tier. The amount of 4 hour tutorials that dont explain anything is crazy, and so often ive ended up confused and stranded whenever something doesnt work (probably because of a mistake i made) but this actually helps me gain a proper understanding of unity. I know gcse level python so you explaining how c++ in operates in some ways helped me make the connections and just actually know whats going on rather than blindly following a shit video.

[Vrakkes]

Hi, I rarely like, comment or subscribe on any videos. But I just wanted to let you know that you have made an amazing set of tutorials that are extremely easy to follow. Everytime you stop to explain something it's just within a reasonable time to not lose focus. Thanks alot!

[mikehynz]

After writing the script with your video, I went back and watched again and put comments over all of the statements, describing what they do in my own words. It really helped the concepts sink in.

[Jenson_Beach]

Oh man, this is great. I went to add more speed and accidentally increased the Edge Radius by 10 so the Player just flew into the air. Fun times. I thank you for making these tutorials and being super thorough on what commands do what. I plan to watch and use them all.

[lrnodho]

I LOVE that you explain everything properly, please please please talk more it's what actually makes me understand this stuff!
Thank you so much for this tutorial! :)

[ajwatcher]

Finally. A tutorial that didn't fry my brain. Thank you, I walk out a wiser man.

[snowsetdeer]

I've been trying to find in depth 2D unity tutorials for the past week, yours is the first one that actually explained to me what each piece of code does, thank you so much for this!!!
