To get the most out of this book

This book contains almost everything you need to follow along. Each chapter considers practical, real-world projects for learning Unity and includes companion files that can be downloaded and used. Apart from this book, the only thing you need is a copy of the latest version of Unity. At the time of writing, this is Unity 2020.1. This software is available for free as a personal edition, and it can be downloaded from the Unity website at https://unity3d.com/get-unity/download.

In addition to Unity, if you want to create props, character models, and other 3D assets, you'll also need 3D modeling and animation software, such as 3DS Max, Maya, or Blender; you'll also need image editing software, such as Photoshop or GIMP. Blender can be downloaded and used for free from http://www.blender.org/. Also, GIMP can be downloaded and used for free from https://www.gimp.org/.

If you are using the digital version of this book, we advise you to type the code yourself or access the code via the GitHub repository (link available in the next section). Doing so will help you avoid any potential errors related to the copying and pasting of code.
