From Gaming Enthusiast to Game Developer: Begin Your Journey with Unity 3D!
How to create a game without experience
Have you ever found yourself lost in the riveting plot of a video game, only to dream of creating one yourself? I’m Hector Pulido, a game developer with over seven years of experience, and I’m here to tell you that it’s possible, even if right now you are a solo player! Being part of pequesoft, a two-person team, I’ve experienced firsthand how dreams can turn into cozy realities.
In this vast universe of game development, taking the first step might seem daunting. But fear not, because I’ll introduce you to two cornerstone Unity 3D templates: one to develop a Real Time Strategy (RTS) game and another to create a pulsating Beat-em-up.
An RTS, or Real-Time Strategy game, is a genre where players simultaneously collect resources, build bases, and command units to compete against opponents. Actions and decisions take place in real-time, providing a dynamic, fast-paced gaming experience, this RTS game template brings your aspiring battlefield to life.
Age of empires is an excelent example of an RTS game
A Beat ‘em up, or brawler, is a video game genre where the player controls a character engaged in close combat with multiple opponents. These games often emphasize hand-to-hand fighting, with the protagonist battling through levels with various enemies, culminating in a boss fight, use this Beat-em-ups template to craft your gripping fights.
The Simpsons Arcade Game is an amazing Beat-em-up game
Getting started with the templates is straightforward. First, navigate to the provided GitHub links for the RTS game template and the Beat-em-ups template.
