Learn how to make a 2D Roguelike game with this project. Over the course of the project you will create procedural tile-based levels, implement turn-based movement, add a hunger system, and finally add audio and mobile touch controls. This video series was filmed in Unity 5, but is compatible with Unity 4.6 as well.

This guide will walk you through setting up an empty Scene to start creating a new level with the Game Kit. This will walk you through some of the fundamentals used in this Kit to create gameplay. The Kit comes with a premade game, which contains examples of every part of the Kit in use if you get stuck for ideas. If you're already familiar with the Kit, and need some quick information, take a look at the reference guide and advanced topics this can also be found in the Documentation folder within the project.

In this tutorial, you'll learn how to add texture to a Shader using two nodes: Texture 2D and Sample Texture 2D. These nodes allow you to reference images in your Unity project to bring them into the Shader you’re creating.

The Explorer: 2D is a collection of mechanics, tools, systems and assets to hook up gameplay without writing any code. To show how these elements can be used we’ve also created a game example using these systems. If you need some quick information on components, take a look at the reference guide and advanced topics this can also be found in the Documentation folder within the project.

In this introductory tutorial, you’ll learn the following things: What this course is about. Who this course is for. How this course is structured. You’ll also have the opportunity to explore the example 2D adventure that we have created! By the end of the tutorial, you should know whether the 2D Beginner: Adventure Game course is right for you and be ready to get started.

In this tutorial, you'll import 2D assets into Unity to create Sprites, both one at a time and from Sprite Sheets (Sprite Atlases) containing multiple assets that you will configure in the Sprite Editor.

The following sections consist of deeper information on the Game Kit systems and may require more Unity knowledge. Some topics require knowledge of C#.

The best way to use this document is like a reference guide, searching by component or setting you want to know more about. Use the navigation bars to find the section you need. To learn the basics of how to use the Game Kit, check the Walkthrough, which provides a good foundation on using the Kit. The Explorer example game included in this project uses all the components we provided for gameplay. To get inspiration or an example of how to use a GameObject, explore the scenes Zone 1 through 5 in the Scenes folder. Important terms and concepts are highlighted with links if you would like to find out more information about them.

This is a video version of the written 2D Game Kit Walkthrough. In this live session with guest host Aurore Dimopoulos, we will explore the 2D Game Kit project from Unity Technologies. 2D Game Kit is designed to allow new users to explore working in Unity and making games without first learning how to code in a friendly drag and drop environment. The kit consists of a vertical slice of a 2D platformer game complete with art, sound and interactive behavior to explore.

In development at Unity is a 2D Animation package that allows you to rig Sprites as one might rig a 3D model for animation. In this tutorial, you will go through the process of importing the 2D Animation package and rig a sprite ready to be animated. You will learn about all the features of the 2D Animation package, including Bones, Weights and Sprite Skins.
