This chapter will put together four sets of advanced recipes:
- Gizmos
- Saving and loading game data
- Automated testing
- An introduction to Unity Python
Let's take a look at each in this introduction!

Gizmos are another kind of Unity editor customization. Gizmos are visual aids for game designers that are provided in the Scene window. They can be useful as setup aids (to help us know what we are doing) or for debugging (understanding why objects aren't behaving as expected).
