Chapter 2. Installing Unity and the OUYA ODK

In the previous chapter, we briefly explained the Unity3D engine, which we'll be using to create games for the OUYA console. In this chapter, you'll link your OUYA to your computer and the Unity development environment, and create a simple workspace to make sure you can deploy and test your coded prototypes using the console.

In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:

Installing the game engine
Downloading and configuring additional packages
Modifying the PATH variable
Installing packages with the Android SDK
Configuring the USB connection

John Donovan

Jack Donovan is a 24-year-old software engineer living in Brooklyn, New York. He graduated from Champlain College in Burlington, Vermont with a BS in game programming and soon after joined IrisVR, a startup founded in Burlington to create oneclick software for architects to visualize models in virtual reality. IrisVR moved to New York City after being accepted into the startup incubator program Techstars and has since moved to an independent office in NoHo, where Jack continues to work. Jack also wrote OUYA Game Development By Example, a book focused on the basics of developing games for the Android-powered OUYA console. Both books use the Unity3D engine for development, which Jack has been using to develop games and software in since 2010.
