Challenge: Add a bonus scene

Capture a video of your project

Share your project

Combine all of your scenes together into one cohesive portfolio project that you can share with others. 

It's time to collect all your good work together into a singular portfolio piece that you and others can play!

A portfolio, especially in the realm of real-time 3D (RT3D) and game development, is not just a collection of work, but a practical way of demonstrating your familiarity with essential tools and concepts. 

In this Mission, you will package all of your work from this Pathway into a single playable experience that you can easily share with others.

You have completed all the work for this entire Pathway, where you have learned the essentials of creating in Unity.

Think back to all you accomplished in this Pathway:

You mastered 3D scene navigation and passed the Scene view flying test.

You added furniture to a kid’s bedroom.

You made a bouncy ball with a custom material and physics.

You configured the skybox, lighting, and camera.

You create an immersive soundscape in a kitchen.

You coded a collectible that spawned a particle effect.

You set up a 2D room with specialized 2D components.

You completed a 2D puzzle game, including an animated 2D pet. 

You set up your work as a single portfolio project.

That’s quite an impressive list! Now all that's left to do is share your work with others on Unity Learn.

When you do this, you will get XP on Unity Learn for completing the entire Unity Essentials Pathway, and you’ll earn the official Unity Essentials badge.

Here's where you’ll upload your screen recording or a link to your WebGL build to Unity Learn in order to inspire others, and to prove that you have, in fact, mastered the essentials of creating in Unity.

Submitting your screen recording is required in order to get credit for completing this Pathway, but it also ties you in with the learning community, where you can see what others are working on and share your creations.

1.  Locate the screen recordings you created or the WebGL link for your published project.

2.  Add a submission title and description below. Make sure to include the screenshots, video recording, or WebGL link. If you have additional details to share about your process or the project that you have created, you can share them in the description too.

5.  Check your submission preview and then complete the CAPTCHA test and select Submit and continue.
