Make better games faster by mastering Unity's powerful toolkit for 2D game development and take advantage of its extensive cross-platform build support. In this 2D game development tutorial for beginners, we'll create a polished, animated game from start to finish, turning it into a native Windows app and a WebGL web game. Finally, we'll learn how to publish a playable version of our game on Unity Play, allowing us to share a link and let others play.
We are making an animated space shooter, inspired by arcade classics such as Galaxian, Galaga or later Nokia mobile game Space Impact. Do you want to know how to make a space shoot 'em up side scrolling game? Let's make 2D games and learn Unity.
