Midnite Oil Software LLC | Re-Create Defender In Unity - Part 1 @midniteoilsoftware | Uploaded November 2022 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
In this Unity tutorial we will be re-creating the classic arcade game Defender.
Whether you're a complete beginner or a seasoned pro I think you will find this tutorial useful and entertaining.
In part 1 we install Unity, create our project, import art and sound assets, and build out a title screen. We also begin layout of the main scene and get our player ship flying around.
We are using the Universal Render Pipeline (URP) and the new Unity Input System.
