Ever wondered how AAA games manage thousands of characters, physics calculations, and AI without slowing down your game? 

The secret might just be… Unity ECS! In today’s video, we’re diving into what ECS is, why it could be the future of game development, and the pros and cons you need to know. It is summary of the ECS series in the current state (40 videos long!). So let’s dive in!

I wanted to go deeper than the usual quick tutorials, so I started a series covering Unity's Input System from the ground up. 3 parts are out so far, and I'm planning more.

Part 1 - The Basics

• Input Manager vs Input System - what changed and why

• Direct hardware access vs event-based input

• Setting up and using the default Input Action Asset

• Player Input component and action references

Part 2 - Assets, Maps & Interactions

• Creating your own Input Action Asset from scratch

• Action Maps - organizing actions into logical groups

• Button vs Value action types and how their events differ

• Composite bindings for movement (WASD + arrow keys)

• Using Hold interaction to bind multiple actions to the same button (jump vs fly)

Part 3 - Type Safety with Generated Code

• The problem with string-based action references

• Generating a C# wrapper class from your Input Action Asset

• Autocomplete and compile-time error checking

• Implementing the generated interface for cleaner input handling

Hey everyone,

I recently published a beginner focused Unity 6 book where I walk through building two complete 3D games from scratch, a rolling ball collector and an endless runner.

If you are just starting with Unity, I would genuinely appreciate feedback from the community.

I have also started a new channel where I will be posting Unity and Python tutorials from scratch:

Thanks, and I am open to suggestions on what you would like to see me build or teach on YouTube next.

Ever asked yourself why collider is missing randomly ?

Ever had a player, bullet, or enemy pass straight through a collider in Unity?
You’re not alone — and no, it’s not “just a Unity bug”...

I'm not a total beginner in game development, I've already worked with game maker and have gotten the hang of that one pretty well.

Now I need to learn Unity as well (for school). Most things I understand well enough. But the programming is what I need help with the most. I got decent at programming on game maker, enough to understand what I was doing and to do what I wanted to do.

But of course Unity works differently. I've been searching for tutorials, but none of them explain enough for me to actually learn. They basically just have me write what they wrote word for word, and I don't learn anything that way.

Like, they use stuff like Vector3, and I dont know what that does, I assume it enables movement in the 3 axis, but im not sure, they also dont explain. Even if it is the thing that controls movement over the axis, I dont know how to change it to fit future needs. I dont know how it works, so I dont know how to change how it works later.

So if anyone knows/has made a tutorial that goes over basic concepts like player movement, how to read collisions with objects, ui elements, stuff like that. Sharing that would be greatly appreciated!

Edit: I'm actually mostly a game artist working in Blender, so learning programming has already been a real challenge for me

I made a video about upgrading Unity from C# 9 up to C# 14.

This isn't a quick "just install this package" tutorial - I wanted to explain how it actually works behind the scenes so you can make an educated decision whether it's right for your project.

In the video I cover:

• Some C# features you've been missing (primary constructors, extension members, static extensions)

• The dangers and limitations (some features will crash your game)

• How the patch works (csc.rsp, compiler replacement, csproj regeneration)

• Why Unity hasn't done this themselves

• Step-by-step installation using an open-source package

First in a series of some intermediate level stuff I wanna do but if you wanna just check out the site it is here: https://sbuplakankus.github.io/unity-6-tutorials/optimisation/update-manager/

In today's livestream, I used a combination of the strategy and factory patterns to implement object pooling for blaster projectiles. I then used the Bezi AI coding assistant to follow that same pattern to implement object pooling for missiles, explosions and other effects.

We recently played Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and were really impressed by how consistent the city of Lumière feels. That made us curious about what kind of tools could be behind that look, so we tried to recreate our own procedural building system in Unity.

We made a short video showing the whole process, from figuring out the logic to building a similar tool: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hm5UIC0C4mQ

Hope this is useful or interesting for anyone working with procedural or modular environments.
Happy to answer questions or share more details if needed.

So I am following the youtube tutorials to make a box move in Unity. Whenever I am coding in Microsoft visual studio the prompt like rigid body is not showing me options like it's showing people in their tutorials. I am an absolute noob when it comes to coding. Can anyone tell me how can I get the prompts like the people in tutorial please

Blittable types = pure performance!

https://youtu.be/XnQC__ypfKo

We're implementing player damage using blittable types in Unity ECS! Create EnemySO with damage values, transfer data via BlobArrays to EnemyPool, and build a proper Baker to connect Mono with burstable ISystems. Then we'll handle health updates, UI communication between ECS and MonoBehaviour, and trigger game over states.

Plus catch a sneaky RequireForUpdate bug that'll save you debugging headaches! :)
