The best in-depth look at Unity 5 game engine I could find.

Excellent course and lecturer !

this video needs an update some assets are off of the assets store and is very annoying

Wow. Just wow. Great instructing voice, great explanation,The second I finish a lesson, I want to go through the next one. Nicely detailed, step-by-step videos. Haven't gotten to the coding part yet, so I can't say how that is explained, but anyone here to make games, I assume has some coding experience and can "read between the lines". Thank you so much for this tutorial, I'm learning a lot about Unity and all aspects of it.

Course is good for the most part but aspects of it are outdated and do not work with Unity 5. When put into game mode you get compiler errors that do not let you replicate what the instructor is doing

This is an excellent introductory course; I would definitely recommend it.

This course is amazing! Help me a lot to produce my first game. thanks 3dmotive ! Keep with this good work.

I've enjoyed this course. Great introduction.

Very clear and concise. I have learned a great deal and feel very confident to start working in Unity 5.

Information is out of date. Rocks blow in wind. Packages from unity store are no longer available. No instruction on how to load the tutorial files. I did find the tutorial to move at a good pace, and the instructor good at explaining each step.

If you're new to the Unity game engine, then definitely give this course a go. It would have been even better if there was a section dedicated for scripting! Perhaps that's more suited for a Unity 5 Intermediate course?

The course is really good. I'm not a native english speaker but understand everything said and explained. The teacher knows what he talks about and passionately transmits that knwoledge back to us
