This tutorial will cover the creation of a basic game using Unity. The game we will make is very simple. The player controls a yellow square with the arrow keys and must avoid touching red squares for as long as possible. The amount of time the player has survived will be displayed and a high score will be saved on the user’s machine. A playable version of the game we will make can be found here:
