The Unity Engine

Game making in the Unity Engine

 

Unity

The Unity engine is a powerful game engine much like Unreal and the Cry Engine but there are still significant differences between the three engines.


The Unity engine is a popular choice for Indie game developers because of it's easy to use level designer. The unity engine contains a 3D viewing window which allows you to place and edit features within the game. It's also easy to import assets (Textures, Models, prefabs, scripts) Into the game. The engine does not have any easy scripting services like Gamemaker and Construct 2, which both use drag and drop like coding features. Unity Engine use javascript which can be easy to learn but hard to master.

Asset store

Unity ,like most game engines, contains pre-installed assets but there's not enough there to make a complete game. So to eliminate the hassle of creating your objects, textures and sound you can download free (and paid) assets on the built in Asset store. Are you having trouble making that angel statue model? Download it here instead! How about instead of hiring an audio artist to make your horror music, Just download it instead!

So, as you can tell, the Asset store is a major addition to any Indie developer.
