In this tutorial, you’ll review the default reports that are included on the Unity Dashboard and learn several methods to visualize and organize your data.

The world of 2D games is wide and full of opportunities, whether you want to make a pixel platformer, minimalist matching game, or retro RPG. We’ve designed this beginner course to be the start of your 2D journey: we’ll guide you step by step through creating your own 2D adventure game, with a choice of assets and options for customization along the way.

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 animation 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 .

This 60-minute webinar dives into comfort-focused features of Unity’s XR Interaction Toolkit to minimize motion sickness in VR/AR. We’ll cover built-in vignette and fade tools, snap-turn vs. smooth-turn configurations, teleportation tweaks, and performance strategies (frame debugging, performance profiling). By the end, you'll know how to configure XRI settings, optimize locomotion, and maintain stable frame rates for a smoother user experience. Session Objectives: Understand common causes of motion sickness in XR (vection, latency, FOV). Configure XRI’s built-in comfort tools: Vignette, locomotion, turning, and teleport fade settings Compare locomotion patterns (teleport, move, smooth turn, snap turn) and apply dynamic vignette or FOV adjustments. Use Unity’s Profiler and Frame Debugger to identify performance bottlenecks.

This Instructor Professional Development course, Teach Unity , is designed to get educators ready to bring Unity into their classrooms. It is a self-paced program with components that cover everything from essentials of the Unity Editor to curriculum development guidance and support for technical classroom implementation. By the end of this course, educators will have a solid foundation of Unity skills on which to build, a classroom setup that is Unity-ready, clear guidance on instructional best practices, and a student-facing course that's ready to go on the learning management software (LMS) platform of their choice.

In this session, Unity’s Lead Analyst and Consultant, Nathan TenBoer, explores the strategic design and implementation of in-game rewards in free-to-play mobile games. The talk unpacks the psychological drivers behind player engagement, the critical role of rewarded advertisements, and how thoughtful reward systems can elevate player retention and revenue without compromising game balance. Through case studies and real-world data from Unity and LevelPlay, attendees will gain a practical roadmap to creating meaningful and motivating in-game experiences. Session Objectives: Understand the core types and functions of in-game rewards. Explore psychological motivators behind player engagement. Learn best practices for integrating rewarded ads that support player choice and gameplay. Discover how to align rewards with different player types and lifecycle stages. Examine key metrics for measuring the effectiveness of reward systems. Review data-driven insights and A/B testing techniques for optimizing engagement and monetization. Apply practical tips for non-intrusive, high-impact reward design.

In this course, you’ll build a 2D game in Unity — starting from a completely blank project with no assets provided, you’ll create the entire game from start to finish. In the game, you fly a simple triangle-shaped ship using mouse clicks (or screen taps on mobile). Your goal: stay alive for as long as you can by dodging flying obstacles while your score increases over time. Along the way, you’ll learn the fundamentals of working in 2D, from navigating the Scene view to coding simple gameplay interactions. You’ll also explore key Unity systems like a user interface (UI), particle effects, audio, and publishing. By the end, you’ll not only have a complete, playable game, but you’ll also have the skills to start building your own original 2D projects.

This tutorial is based on a Universal Render Pipeline (URP) recipe from the Create popular shaders and visual effects with Universal Render Pipeline (Unity 6 edition) technical e-book. By the end of this tutorial, you’ll have written your own compute shader that will create particle effects. This tutorial is aimed at intermediate Unity users who have developed projects in Unity, know how to use URP features, and have some knowledge of writing HLSL-based shaders. If you’re new to compute shaders, make sure to check out the Compute Shaders section of the documentation.

This course is designed to help you prepare for the Unity Certified Associate: Game Developer exam. In this course, you will master the fundamental skills needed for game development with Unity, including programming in C#, designing immersive audio and stunning visual effects, crafting intuitive user interfaces, and applying unique animations, materials and lighting. You'll start by creating a design document for your own game, then gradually build a working prototype. Throughout the course, you'll enhance your game using the skills you acquire, taking it from a simple idea to a finished product. Towards the end of the course, there is dedicated time for a comprehensive review of everything you’ve learned to ensure you’re fully prepared to ace the exam When you're done with the course, you will not only have the skills to pass the Unity Certified Associate exam and continue creating your own games, but you'll also have a fully realized game that you've designed and created from scratch.

In this intermediate course, participants will learn how to produce performance-optimized 3D assets and scenes for mobile applications. Topics will cover tips on optimizing Geometry, Textures, Materials, Shaders, and Lighting. This course was created with technical artists and content creators in mind.
