Creator Kit: RPG

This Creator Kit offers students full project assets to create an RPG (Role Playing Game) of their own design. This kit is a great way to explore character development within game design. No coding is required in this project, but if your students have coding skills, they may program the game play and behaviors as they like. This is project fits well into the mid or end point of a game development pathway. 

Using the Unity Interface, to learn basic Unity interface navigation and get comfortable

Playground for Educators, to learn Unity interface in an easy-to-manage project

Create with Code, for computer programming and Unity development experience

Welcome to the RPG Creator Kit! If you fancy yourself an intrepid adventurer and love completing NPC quests to fill up your inventory, this is the kit for you.

This Creator Kit is code-free, which means that you can focus on learning about Unity Editor and customizing the game based on your own ideas and interests.  When you’ve completed the learning project, you’ll be able to share your customized RPG with friends. We also have lots more 2D game content for you to explore!

You’ve used this Creator Kit to create a world, populate it with NPCs and set quests for players to complete. In this final tutorial you'll create a build of your game.

You’ve used this Creator Kit to create a world, populate it with NPCs and set quests for players to complete. Now it’s time to create a build of the game.

A build is made when Unity takes the Assets you have used and compresses them in an executable file. You can use this file to launch the game without needing Unity Editor on your computer.

1.  In the top menu, go to File > Build Settings.


2.  In the dialog window, select the Add Open Scenes button at the bottom of the empty Scenes In Build list. This will add the currently open Scene to the build.


Check that it is the first Scene in the list — this is what will be displayed when your game runs.


3. Now click Build.


4.  Select the folder where you want to save your build and give it a name.


5.  Unity will create the build and then open the folder which contains the executable file. You can launch this to play your game.


6.  Zip the folder which contains your build and send it to your friends!

If you feel ready to start working with code, Ruby’s Adventure: 2D Beginner will take you through building your own 2D RPG from scratch, from first GameObject to final build.

Alternatively, there are also two other Creator Kits to explore:

Creator Kit: Puzzle, where you’ll create a sequence of physics-based puzzle levels

Creator Kit: FPS, where you’ll explore level design and customize weapons and targets
