3D Graphics Editorial Review

  • ubuy Kenya
  • ubuy Kenya

The Learning C# by Developing Games with Unity 2021 is a book that teaches programming with C# through game development on Unity. It is well-written, engaging and covers a lot of topics without getting too deep into unfamiliar territory. While it is an excellent book for Unity beginners, some have found that the author did not provide enough exercises and practice for each subject, and complex things are explained only once. Others found that there were various code typos that threw errors when typed exactly as shown in the book. Overall, the author has taken a good approach in teaching through Unity examples, which cover techniques within the context of a script that can be completed within a quarter of an hour. The book's centerpiece is the single game, "Hero's Born," which covers design, lighting, animation, movement, physics, AI, and the role of the camera. While the last third of the book focuses on intermediate to advanced C# and programming concepts, it does feel slightly rushed, and more examples and explanation would have been nice.
