Hello and welcome, I am your Code Monkey and here you will learn everything about Game Development in Unity 2D using C#.

I've been developing games for several years with 7 published games on Steam and now I'm sharing my knowledge to help you on your own game development journey.

🔴 2023 UPDATES AND CHANGES 🔴
The current LTS version is 2021.3, Unity automatically downloads that one when you download Unity Hub.

The New Project window in Unity Hub looks a bit different but works the same, you have all kinds of Templates.
Nowadays you should be making games using URP, so you should start from the URP template. The only reason why I didn't choose that one was to keep the video as simple as possible so I didn't want to bother people by talking about Render Pipelines. If you choose the URP template it will come with everything correctly setup.

The Camera component will look slightly different depending on the Render Pipeline that you're using, that's normal.

🔴 Frequently Asked Questions:
- My material is pink!

- Do I need to learn Programming to make games?

- Where do I write the code?
You can use any IDE you want, by default Unity should install Visual Studio Community which is free

- My visual studio didn't install!

- My ball falls through the floor!

- I cannot add my custom component to a game object!
- Or "Can't add script component"
Make sure the class name matches the file name exactly. And make sure the class extends MonoBehaviour.

- My code isn't running!
Make sure you attach the script to the game object, make sure the game object is enabled (tick the box next to the name)
Also check that your functions are called exactly Start() and Update(), if you type start() it won't work.
And also make sure you Save the changes, the code only compiles after you save the text file.

- The code in the video isn't working!
Make sure you copy it exactly, remember that code is case sensitive. So for example it's Debug.Log(); not debug.Log(); or Debug.log();

- How do I use Java/C++ in Unity?
You can't, Unity only supports C# (although technically you can build a DLL in any language and use it from Unity)

- I'm seeing an error!

- When I double click a script it doesn't open!
Go into Edit > Preferences > External Tools and in the drop down menu select your IDE, like for example Visual Studio Community

Watched in 2x speed, learned unity in less than 10 minutes.

Programming is half remembering something, half googling it, and half watching code monkey because he's examples are the most practical and I really appreciate his content :)

[joshf]

I finished watching this video while Unity was loading

[Pedro_Marangon]

Me: works in unity for over 2 years, knows advanced stuff, uses it every day
Also me: watch tutorials on unity 101

This is the "introductory" video I had been looking for. Quick and filled with useful information.

[sebastianjost]

This is a really, really good introduction. Thank you.
Much better than all the previous tutorials I watched.

[philharland]

Been using it for a year, and this is probably the easiest, and most useful tutorial for beginners I've seen! Even I learnt something! :o)

Here's a Beginner guide to Unity, after this video you should have a base understanding of how the engine works and how you can expand upon it!
🌐 Have you found the videos Helpful and Valuable?

[katzap]

I’ve been watching so many unity tutorials and this is by far the most helpful yet for an absolute beginner like myself

[TheActualJack]

What a fantastic tutorial! I'm an Unreal boy for the last 7 years and this helped me pick up Unity basics soooo quickly.

this was much better than other tutorials i watched, not feeling overloaded and actually took it in

[RedlineTougeJapan]

Finally a tutorial I can understand, and the video you made about clearing up the controversy made me feel more confident, not to mention I havent seen any other newer videos on those controversial subjects, so I think you've done a great job at cooling people off

[cpu_UP]

Excellent video as basic introduction to "how to work with" Unity.

[yuehaowu]

Finally. A tutorial that isn’t 2 hours and only contains 1 minute of useful info
