Over at Digital-Tutors.com, the training site for all things CAD, 3D and DCC apps, has a new “Introduction to Unity 5” tutorial series.

The new Unity training includes over 4 hours and 30 minutes of training content that teaches the viewer how to create a game that they can share with others. Important aspects of using Unity 5 are covered including interface comprehension, project creation, character set-up and the development of materials, terrains, and characters.

With the rise in popularity of 2D/3D games and interactive experiences, Unity has become one of the leading game engines, enabling developers to launch their work on over 20 different platforms, including mobile apps, consoles like XBox and Playstation, in-browser experiences and more. Unity’s decision to make its game engine free to learn has helped its growth and made it accessible for all to learn. The new “Introduction to Unity 5” tutorial aids in that growth by helping any developer or artist quickly create their own games or interactive projects.
