During development of any project in Unity, there will be a need to import assets, whether they be 3D or 2D. Assets come in various file formats such as .fbx, .png, and .tga. These are just a few, but are commonly used in Unity development. In this tutorial, you will learn different ways to bring in your assets.

Sprite Animations are animation clips that are created for 2D assets. There are various ways to create Sprite Animations. One way is to create them from a Sprite Sheet, a collection of Sprites arranged in a grid. The Sprites are then compiled into an Animation Clip that will play each Sprite in order to create the animation, much like a flipbook. Sprite Animations can also be created by using keyframe animation in Unity, via the Animation window.

Unity allows you to have multiple scenes loaded simultaneously in the Unity Editor. Multi-scene editing allows you to lay out a huge game world one chunk at a time, moving everything into place, and even transfer assets from one scene to another. In this workflow, we’ll explore how we can use multi-scene editing to build a game world from modular sections.

The Frame Debugger is a handy tool that allows you to freeze playback for a running game on a particular frame to view the individual draw calls used to render that frame. The debugger also lets you go through frames one-by-one so you can see in greater detail how the scene is constructed.  In this tutorial, you will learn about the Frame Debugger and how to use it for analysis.
