Overview

Summary

Do you want to know how to keep your data between scenes? How about between executions of your game? This recorded live session demonstrates how to do both. We will look at things like DontDestroyOnLoad, PlayerPrefs, and data serialization. Note that this tutorial is coding intensive. It is advisable that you understand datatypes and object-oriented programming concepts before starting. Dang, if only we had a course available that taught that... Oh wait!
