before we start don't forget to click the subscribe button in turn on the Bell
as I will share more tips about game development in unity make sure you don't
miss it tip number one start your first game
small this one is really important especially when you just start making
your game yes you may want to put a lot of features and mechanics in your game
because that's probably the game should apply in your dream and some people may
tell you making a game is easier than you think coding your own games is
easier than you think ok I don't know what he's talking about
the fact is making a game is more complicated than you think you have to
know how to plan the game making prototype and adding features and mechanic to
keep the game interesting none of these can be mastered in short time but don't
let them scare you away as you can pick up all these knowledge gradually just
go easy on yourself at the beginning some people would suggest you finish the
first game in two month second one in six month and the third one in one year
but I have to say it really depends if you are experienced developer you may
want to start something bigger than that as long as you feel comfortable to
control the scale of the game but always keep it in mind that is something small
it's a really a good idea for beginner tip number two start learning unity now
you need to start learning unity there are many resources online I have to say
use over them as much as possible the first step is to understand some basics
like game development concept in a familiar with unity editor then you can
try to watch some tutorials on youtube and unity website but one thing I would
like to mention is that only choose the tutorial which is useful for you and try
your best to digest them for example if you're working on FPS game just watch
all the tutorials relate to this topic don't waste your time on tons of
tutorials and try to understand over them at the same time and remember no
matter how much you learn for them tutorial you really need to create
something yourself even follow this tutorial step by step rather than just
watching it tip number three in prototype once you feel comfortable to
start making your first game don't dive into the details straightaway
you need to build a prototype first and make sure the game you are going to create is
achievable without any technical issue and the core mechanic is fine enough to
keep the game being interesting now everything is ready I will show you
another two tips to create your indie game
faster and easier for the stadium all the way to the end
tip number four don't try to make everything yourself
I personally believe this tip may be the most important one for the beginner as
you start making the indie game you may want to create something really unique
special or something people haven't seen it before then you decide to build a
game from the scratch many people even want to start building
the game engine yes you try to make everything yourself it sounds cool
but sooner or later you realize that creating the game from scratch is almost
impossible for beginner because you need to know a lot of stuff like building 2d
or 3d models animation audios particle system shaders textures material
music sound fx and so on many people outside dedicate themselves for years on
one of these areas only don't expect you can master all these skills in very
short time please don't take me wrong here I didn't mean you should not learn
the knowledge you're not familiar this or I try to say is in order to master
all these skills would take years of hard working in practicing trust me you
certainly don't want to work on the game over three or four years alone as any
game developer as a resource for us is quite limited just simply don't go to
that path the other reason is that you will also lose motivation and passion
quickly which is the main reason that most of the indicate developer quick or
cannot finish the game at the end the most realistic way to make your game is
to use pre-made asset you can find many free or sale asset
from Unity store if you are not good at some area at the moment don't worry simply
grab the suitable SF on the store and fully use them in your game
don't let this issue slow you down too much as keeping your motivation and
passion by making progress of the game is more important at this stage tip
number 5 start sharing your work and getting feedback once you get some work
done try to start sharing as soon as possible it could be a playable demo or
some short gameplay clips as you need to get a feedback from your audience there
are many places you can publish your game like each other you can also start
uploading weekly the vlog on YouTube which is a great way to grow your
audience as well the only way to improve your game quickly is to get the feedback
you'd better get a feedback from other indie game developer but also the gamer
who like the game you are creating once we get some subscribers and followers
don't forget to stab you to your own discord server then all your subscribers
and followers can join in and discuss your game these are the top five tips
for the beginner who want to start game development in unity these tips really
help me to create the game quickly and efficiently I hope it works for you as
