Looks great, how much?

When playing Furry Hurry I tried to jump from the ice island down, but then I kept re-spawning me back…

Hi there Mr Snake, I would imagine the book would retail between £30-45.

Many thanks for highlighting that error in the Furry Hurry game, will get that fixed!

:slight_smile:

Book looks great…

As i know nothing about the book producing side of things, I am just curious as to whether it is legal to do something like this?

But i think it looks fantastic and might look for a copy for a read.

Regards

Hi there Charlie,

I assure you we are completely legal and above board :smile:

Many thanks for your compliments, we are really proud of the way the book has come together and
hope everyone in the Unity community enjoys what we have to offer. If you have any questions or suggestions
please don’t hesitate to fire them across to us!

thanks again.

Congradulations on the book! Anyone can write a book and sell it for what ever they want without a publisher, there is no rule stating you have to use some publisher for your books, on top of that, you can outsource to publishing companies for dimes on the dollar if you really want, depending on if you want a hard copy or not. I can think of several publish companies that are digital only and charge an annual fee to post/house your book and sell it for you including having a book review section.

Many thanks Zumwalt! Getting to the exciting stage now! Hopefully the book will be well received by the community!

Congrats!

Is there anywhere we can sign up to get the launch announcement?

Hi there AbsoluteBreeze, we have just added a newsletter subscription page to our website. We will be sending out a newsletter with launch dates and more information on the book!

many thanks

Cool! thanks :slight_smile:

Hi DeepPixel,

Is this available on paperback only, any chance with eBook version so it can be purchased and download instantly just like Packt Publishing?

I’m looking at a book showing advanced scripting techniques (pref. in c#), as I’m using Unity in my daily work, and already have beginners books, would yours fit to my expectations ? :wink:

The book is definitely for beginners who have an understanding of how a programming language should work. It doesn’t go into massive detail about IF… ELSE, FOR, etc etc, but assumes a basic understanding. So it’s not for absolute beginners. It’s more for people like me, who understand basic syntax and control structures, iteration etc, but have not seen or done any practical work with them in a programming language. I only received the book yesterday, and want to finish the walker boys tutorials first, but it looks like it will be complementary to what I have learnt from them.

Very cool! however the 2 books about unity (including this one) seem to be introductory. I wonder when we’ll see something like “Unity3d Black Belt” where you get exposed to the really cool/secret stuff. then again, that’s what the forums are for, but it’d still be cool to have all/a lot of someone’s experience in a single book.

This would be very cool. I would love to see a Unity book targeted to the intermediate level.

Does this book have tutorials for beginners and experts alike. Does it contain information about troubleshooting certain problems?
