Your guard walks its route perfectly and ignores you even when you stand right in front of it, so here is how to find out which check is failing. This is a debugging-only follow-up to post 179, which builds the patrol, notice, chase, and give-up guard in Unity and Godot; here you leave that machine…
You already have a built FMOD event in a bank, so now you get FMOD for Unity reading that bank and make one event play when something happens in your game. This is the Unity-only, one-event version of the FMOD handoff, not the Godot plugin walkthrough in post 173 and not the FMOD Studio design…
You already have a built FMOD event, so now you get that one event into a Godot 4 project and make it play when something happens in your scene. This is the one-event Godot handoff, not the FMOD Studio design overview. You will not build events, parameters, buses, or snapshots here. This article assumes you…
Before you add a wallet connect or read an on-chain value in Unity, learn what you cannot verify, what to test with the chain turned off, and when to stop. Blockchain features in games attract strong opinions. Some people see ownership and new design space. Others see risk and hype. This article is neither a…
Go past your first Shader Graph material and build a dissolve that eats an object away with a glowing edge, then drive it from a script. In the beginner Shader Graph guide, you built a lit material with a color, varied smoothness, and a fresnel rim. That taught you the core loop: add a property,…
Choose between Unity and Unreal for your first XR project, then build one small test: a room, the player’s head, and one object that reacts when you look at it. Your first VR or AR project should not be a game. It should be a test that proves three things work: the headset or phone…
You will build one guard NPC that patrols, notices the player, gives chase, and gives up, in both Unity and Godot, then learn where a language model fits for dialogue and how to keep the game playable when it is missing. When people say “AI NPC” today, they often mean a chatbot in a character…
You will learn what a shader is in plain terms, then build one lit material in Shader Graph with a color, a smoothness control that varies across the surface, and a glowing rim you can see move as the camera turns. Shader Graph can look like a wall of boxes and wires the first time…
A plain-language decision guide for solo Unity developers: what ECS really changes, when to skip DOTS entirely, when it earns its cost, and how to start with the Entities package without rewriting your whole game. DOTS comes up in almost every Unity performance conversation, and it is easy to come away thinking you should be…
This is a small slice of Unity’s Data-Oriented Technology Stack, not a performance test. You will bake one authoring component into an entity and rotate that entity from a system. There are no frame-time numbers here. If you want a crowd, a projectile storm, or a comparison against GameObjects, build that later, on your own…
