In this plenary, reflect on the learning and check that you have completed all the steps for the week.

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.

In this official course from Unity, you will learn Real-time Animated Storytelling, allowing you to create your own 3D animations with cutting-edge technology. During the course, you will develop pre-visualization skills, learn to create an environment and props, animate characters, film a story, and refine your Scene with lighting and effects. As an artist and storyteller, you will learn how to leverage one of the most powerful new technologies to bring your ideas to life in real-time. As you complete the creative challenges and develop your own project, you’ll be able to share your new skills in our gallery and in your portfolio. Whether you’re a student who wants to be at the forefront of the entertainment industry, or a professional looking to upskill, by the end of this course you will have developed in-demand skills to make you stand out from the crowd. The 3D assets for this course were generously provided by our partner, Synty Studios, and are not for commercial use. If you would like to use any of the 3D assets from this course in commercial projects, please purchase one of the asset packs from Synty Studios’ Asset Store page.

Unity includes a built-in publishing feature that allows you to publish to various popular platforms in an easy and efficient way. You can publish the same application to multiple platforms, provided the application design takes into account the unique hardware and software requirements of each platform. In this tutorial, we’ll explore publishing to Android-based devices.

This tutorial will be a refresher on how to show a video ad within Unity, with an update on how to use ShowOptions to capture the result of displaying the ad.

Configuring an Xbox controller for user input in Unity is easily achieved through Unity’s new Input System, available as an installable Package. In this tutorial, we will set up a simple scenario that uses the Xbox game controller buttons.

In this tutorial, we’ll set up a Texture Sheet animation to randomly spawn different star images on the particles in a single emitter.

Starting with Unity 2018 LTS, meshes can spawn particles in a predictable order, dictated by the order of the vertices/faces. In this tutorial, we’ll emit particles from the surface of a plane, which has a simple ordered mesh.

In this tutorial, we’ll explore Assembly Definitions. An Assembly Definition groups code into an Assembly. An Assembly might be based on origin, purpose, and/or whatever criteria best suits your project. An Assembly Definition can also depend on the platform. By default, all code in a Unity project belongs to a single Assembly, called Assembly-CSharp.

An AssetBundle is content that is stored separately from a main game or application and loaded (or downloaded, in the case of mobile and online apps) at runtime. This helps minimize the impact on network and system resources by allowing customers to download and install only the parts they need. AssetBundles can also be used to update or add to content post-release. In this tutorial, we’ll explore AssetBundles and how they may best serve your project.
