Overview

Summary

For assets in a 2D project to have a physical presence in the Scene and be able to interact with each other, they must have a 2D Collider. A 2D Collider is a component that helps define an asset’s physical shape to determine how it will interact with other colliders in a Scene. 
In this tutorial, you'll learn about the types of 2D Colliders you can use, and you'll apply a Collider to a GameObject.
