Unity is a powerful engine that equips game developers with all the necessary tools to build games quickly and efficiently. From high-performance 2D and 3D graphics rendering, to realistic physics simulations, Unity has got you covered. However, if you simply wanted to go straight to making your dream game, reading and understanding all the official Unity documentation and tutorials can be time consuming.

This is where the Beat ‘Em Up Game Starter Kit comes in. More than a book, this full-flavored starter kit walks you through the whole process of creating your own game in Unity. It gives you tools, assets, fresh starter projects for each chapter and step-by-step instructions to create an addictive beat ‘em up game for Android and iOS. You’ll build out the features one at a time, allowing you to learn at a steady, logical and fun pace.
