Unity Touch Joystick Player Movement - Touch FPS Controller (Part 1)

This Unity C# tutorial (part 1 of 2) will show you how to create a FPS controller for mobile apps similar to Dead Trigger or ShadowGun. In Part 1 we create a touchscreen joystick to move our player around. In the next and last tutorial of this series (Part 2) we will extend the functionality of this joystick to create another joystick that will control player rotation. So we can have 2 joysticks on screen instead of 1 joystick and a swipe touch pad.
