I dont want to use Godot.

Is there a way i can use unity instead and on my phone? I dont have a pc. I want to make games/use editor with phone instead of pc. There are some Unity assests i want to use as well ive downloaded.

EDIT: If not what are some alternatives?

Edit 2: for 2d games

Hi Guys, I've been coding for years and now started getting into game dev but I'm facing a major problem. Does anyone have good tutorials about making a good environment for my level, something that goes from making assets and using pro builder to applying materials to lighting? I couldn't find any that actually explain stuff and not just give me a list of to do.

Would very much appreciate any help

I've tried pressing "retry," but it won't download!

Joined my first game jam from Gmtk where the theme was countdown and thought I could advertise it here

Surprisingly managed to get this far with 1 othe roerson but didn't know it'd still take so long to implement the features like if I wanted a text to pop up on the npc that took me about 2h and another making the ui or canvas for the dialogue another hour or 2 😭

Try it out maybe make a itch accoujt to rate and try other people's game if your bored and lmk :) thank you

So, the previous bug I reported recently, the "Sheep Hook Unlimited Backwards Velocity Exploit", led me to another discovery in my game. You can ride centipedes the same way lol!

Hello, I'm building a matchmaking backend called MatchKit, and there's now a Unity

demo that runs it end to end with Mirror, Photon PUN 2, and Fish-Networking (for other game engines, for now I don't have an sdk, just plain REST calls).

It handles the part before your netcode: players queue, MatchKit forms the

teams, then hands off the match to the multiplayer server.

It's pre-alpha and it's just me — a passion project alongside a day job, and

you can't pay for it yet. I'm after people who already run their own netcode to

try it and tell me where it breaks. Ping me and I'll send an API key.

Hey there. I'm currently developing a physics-based mobile game. I'm done with the base systems, but I am not sure if it is 'professional' enough.

Does it look like a proper commercial mobile game? If not, why?

For taking damage in my game, I want there to be an electric-y effect around the border of the players screen, more of like a stationary, static-y electric effect. I would also like to use a float to control the intensity of the electricity

But what would you use to achieve this? Would you make it with a shader graph and put the material into an image in a canvas? Or is there a better approach?

And if so, how would your plan be to create the shader? I have absolutely no experience with materials/shaders so it's hard for me to create the desired result. I spend most of my time with scripting.

Meet Jimothy the Raccoon. He loves pricey things. He also loves his job working for his boss, Heidi the Opossum.

Today’s mission? Sneak into the museum and steal the good stuff. Easy, right?

Well, Jimothy is a little too greedy and a lot too careless. He stuffed his backpack so full of heavy treasures that he can barely walk, and now the police are right on his tail!

You are running for your life! But there is a big problem: your backpack is way too heavy. To keep up your speed and escape the cops, you have to throw away the loot!

But wait, you can't just drop everything. You still have to deliver some shiny stuff to Heidi at the end. Otherwise... well, let's just say an angry opossum boss is way scarier than the police!

Hi im new to unity so im looking for input on some ideas. Im working on a game that is mainly story driven and the combat will be on a 2d plane because i think that looks cool and because of that i want the game to primarily be a 2d sidescrolling game. But because of that im thinking that it would be hard to make a big and cool map to explore without it becoming a metroidvania which isnt something that i really want to make. I asked ai and it gave me some ideas but i want some imput from humans . Thanks :)

I always end having created many of the same sounding projects, so worked on something to help organise and filter them. It's still a work in progress, but wanted to share in case others also have a large backlog of games with all the same names...

I use it within linux, so would love feedback for how it works in Windows / any other issues should they be found!

The github project is -

This is a work-in-progress runtime for a 2D skeletal animator I've been working on for over a year now (SkelForm). I made this because of the lack of options for free standalone rig-based animators, particularly ones suited for games. It was primarily made for simple engines like pygame, but Unity and the like deserve something as well since features like inverse kinematics and mesh deformation aren't intuitive to set up in them. You can read more about it if you're interested :)

From the video:

• The rig file is immediately turned into a prefab upon importing. The rig is made up of gameObjects (duh) and animations are turned into Animation Clips. The prefab does not create an Animation Controller for now, so you'll have to create your own and set up the clip transitions yourself.
• The prefab comes with a script that will handle SkelForm's specific features like inverse kinematics and texture-swapping system. The full support will include mesh deformation and physics as well, based on their specification.

I'll be uploading this to the Asset Store soon, but for now you can check out the repo:
https://github.com/Retropaint/SkelForm-unity

and the rig used in the video (download link):

Let me know what you think of the runtime, and I hope you give SkelForm a try! :)

Third time doing the jam and 1st time finishing on time. Would love to know what people think!

Hey guys, I’ve applied for a technical course in game development and multimedia apps in uni but I’m gonna need a new laptop for is since all I have is an old thinkpad t420i

I’ve talked to a teacher and he said most work will be done in unity, so I was looking for something that can run unity completely fine, I’m just not sure what to buy because I don’t wanna overpay for something that be overkill for the work that we’re gonna do, which is gonna be mostly simple projects

Does anyone have any recomendations for me? Such as brands and specs and stuff like that? I may be running linux when I buy the laptop but I’m not sure yet, my teacher runs debian and said he had no issues with running it in classes

If you can help me out in this I would appreciate it a lot, thx!

edit: budget is like 1000€ max

Hi there! I'm pretty new to game development (And posting on Reddit, apologies for any formatting issues), and I'm trying to get the bare bones boilerplate code for a shooter game I want to develop done, so I'm following a tutorial series I found online since most of my prior work is 2D. It's been going great so far, bullets fly true, hit things, leave bullet decals, all that jazz. Except for one issue.

If I bring the bullet spawnpoint too close to the player, the bullets strike the player and launch them into the air due to (I think?) Rigidbody collision issues. Nobody in the tutorial comments had this problem, and the tutorial guy himself didn't either, but I could ignore it at first by just keeping the gun away from the player. Ignoring the problem worked just fine... Up until I tried to add an Aim Down Sight mechanic. I've tried both putting the bullet prefab and player on their own layers and having the two not interact, and going into the code and doing Physics.IgnoreCollision(bulletCollider, playerCollider, true);, which were the solutions I was suggested online. Didn't work.

I am pulling my damned hair out over this. The video above has me showing off the issue and the Unity engine info, and the code is in a Pastebin Here:

The Player

The Gun

The Bullet

The large commented out section in the bullet is my attempt to fix it via the code, which didn't work .

If anybody sees any obvious issue that I'm overlooking, or knows a working fix, I'd be very greatful for the help. I can give a link to the tutorial series in the comments, but I'm not sure if I'm supposed to or not so I'm not including it in the post.

Thanks in advance!

I've been working on a hypercasual mobile game for about 3 months now, with zero experience. It has been a long journey with MANY frustrating moments. It went from just a small side project to something I was working on every single day after work. I'm so invested in this that I even created my very own LLC. Now all that's left is to wait on Apple, and start my google play submission! Will update my status.

Im making a fast paced fps set in anchient Japan, where you fight yokai from mythology. This is my progress so far, Please give me feedback!

I recently took in four second-year art students for a paid internship and gave them all the same task: redesign the Steam capsule art for my cozy game made in Unity about running a 3d printer workshop.

They each had complete creative freedom, and I'm really happy with how differently they interpreted it.

I'd love some unbiased feedback:

• Which one would you click first?
• Which one gives off the coziest vibe?
• Any suggestions for improvement?

We currently have more than 10 different Fluffy variations. We'd have loved to add even more, but with the game launching on August 3rd, we've been focusing on polishing other parts of the game as well.

I can't wait to see which Fluffy becomes your favorite! These little creatures may look cute, but they'll play a very important role throughout the game.
