Unity Tutorial 01

 

A screenshot of my first Unity project in progress

I have just completed my first Unity task for this module and while it was very long and a bit tedious at times having to manage all the windows on my small laptop screen in order to receive information in an effective way, I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I have more questions than answers, How do I take control of the car? Does the Unity UI not feel a bit cramped to others? What are some important tips and tricks I should know as a beginner? I actually have delved into some external research on that last question but I cannot wait to study and discover the answers to all these questions. As for the three tutorials I completed I found them all quite easy to understand and fascinating, the code itself is very different to coding I did in Web Development 1 and 2, however I am excited to learn it all off, however I am finding it a lot harder to memorise the important methods, tags, names and overall wording to be used in this code in comparison to Web Development. I hope I begin to retain these words in my head overtime and practice using the Unity engine, and I cannot wait to continue my progress in Unity!
