Hey everyone. Tetris was supposed to be next, and it probably will still come, but there's been a change of plans.
My IRL students are working on a platformer project. I'm thinking I'll make a few small series about platformer controls/setup etc. The more videos are in a series, the less engagement each video gets, which isn't a huge deal, but I'd like them to be as digestible as possible. Each of these would be in their own playlist, and could be seen as it's own series. So here's the plan.
Week of 02/24: 2-3 Videos on setting up Unity for a Platform game. This would include using the Tilemap system to create layered worlds, setting up the pixel perfect cinemachine camera, and maybe some 2D lights and shadows.
Week of 03/03: 4-5 Videos on Platformer movement using the Unity Input system. We'd cover double jumps, wall slides, and mario physics (which are bonkers btw), animation, and states.
Week of 03/10: 2-3 Videos on platformer hazards (spikes, etc).
Week of 03/17: 3-4 Videos on Enemies.
Week of 03/24: 4-5 Videos polishing, particle effects, connecting levels, sounds, pause menu, etc.
Thoughts?

Hey everyone. New Unity tutorials are coming today, but not the ones you'd expect.
My IRL students are just getting introduced to Unity, so we're doing a short Flappy Bird project to get them into how Unity works. I'm uploading those videos here. I'm not gonna lie, after more than four years away, the videos are a bit rough, so think of them as just a bonus, and not necessarily up to my normal quality.

Hey everyone. This is going to seem out of pocket, but I promise there's a reason for it.
I'll release a new tutorial series on how to make Tetris in Unity most likely in the next few weeks. It's bad for the algorithm to release it all at once, but I will have the entire project and series done before I start releasing videos. I'll then release them at a consistent rate until the series is finished.
I'm doing it this way for a few reasons. Partly to correct errors I made way back when, in the long, long ago when I'd release videos then go weeks without new videos. And also because I'll be using these videos as a tool with my IRL classes I teach.
After that, I'll have a series on making a platformer, then a 3D infinite runner, as those are the next projects in my IRL classes.
New Zelda like content won't be until summer at the earliest. The same goes for Godot content.
Thanks to everyone who's kept watching the channel. You're awesome, and I appreciate it.

Hey everyone, Merry Christmas (late)! I'll be doing a live stream tomorrow morning at 8:00 AM Mountain time (UTC - 7:00). I'll be taking some time to review old projects/materials in Unity and Godot and check out what's going on with those platforms. Still no concrete plans, but we'll see how it goes.

Hey everyone. Today's my birthday! At the moment, I'm planning on doing a live stream on either Thursday the 26th or Friday the 27th around 8:00 AM Mountain Time. I'll take some time to review old materials and look at what's been going on with Unity and Godot in my time "away." I don't have any concrete plans past that at the moment, but we'll see how it goes.

Hey there, all. I'm not dead, I swear. A lot has happened in four years. Are Unity/Godot tutorials still a thing? You all interested in that?

Hey everyone. It's been two weeks since my last video and I'm not gone, I swear. I'll be putting up a "state of the channel" video later today to discuss a lot of stuff, so watch out for that. New videos will resume later this week or early next week.

Hey everyone, I promise I'm working on tutorials. I just want to have an entire section done before I post any of it so that I can get my channel to be more regular. I appreciate all of you for your patience and understanding. In the mean time, Here's a look at a personal project I'm working on:
