Bonus: Other Unity Tools!

Across this book, we have gone through a third-person environmental puzzle vertical slice. This is a specific genre of game with its own unique problems in development, and this does mean that a lot of Unity’s great tools weren’t mentioned, so we wanted to take a small section and write about what other offerings Unity could provide for your next project. We will cover an introductory-level understanding of the following:

  • Multiplayer
  • XR
  • Machine Learning Agents
  • Bolt visual scripting
