Preface

Greetings and welcome to Mastering Unity 2017! This book begins from a beginner's knowledge of Unity, and it helps you develop that knowledge into mastery of a certain kind. Specifically, it develops a general, overarching mastery in which you’ll learn Unity like a seasoned indie developer, capable of turning your hand to pretty much any department and feature set within Unity. The following chapter outline explains, in more detail, the full range of features that we’ll see, but the central aim of this book is to make you versatile and powerful with Unity; capable of encountering a problem and being able to solve it in the language of Unity’s feature set. In this book, we’ll concentrate for the most part on a practical example; we’ll build a first-person combat game, across multiple chapters, and this will test your typing skills in more ways than one, so let’s go!
