Thanks all for your positive feedbacks and comments! I added the link to the music file in the description. You can find tons of free music on the Internet, just check the licensing before using it.

Imagine our teacher using this video as laboratory work for our Unity discipline at university. Thank you for making everything clear and understandable

[@this-is-gamedev]

That would be a cool teacher 😇🤓

[@xionsflame1]

I've been out of the loop for a month or so and this was really helpful reminding me how to put everything together. Thank you! The only thing I had trouble with was I didn't see the .zip with the music file in it. I ended up downloading a free asset instead. Overall one of the best 'create something in an hour' tutorials I've seen when it comes to any sort of development.

Hello sir, is there any way I can download all the scripts shown in this video??? also when I import the models, the lights that are supposed to glow aren't glowing

[@this-is-gamedev]

The full solution is not to download. The lights not glowing is probably the post-processing volume that is missing or the main camera has not the option “post processing” enabled

[@studypurpose4486]

@@this-is-gamedev I found the solution, previously I made the game on a 3d built in render pipeline and now I made it on universal render pipeline

Amazing tutorial. Thank you so much! I have a question, i followed the tutorial and everything was going smooth until i got the message on my console saying : BoxColliders does not support negative scale or size. The effective box size has been forced positive and is likely to give unexpected collision geometry. What should i do to fix this please? Or should i ignore it?

[@this-is-gamedev]

Thanks! This is weird. Colliders do always have positive values indeed. Maybe the collider is not on the right object. Might be that by mistake the normals of the model are inverted.

Hi, amazing video, but i have a problem with importing the assets. The only thing i can import is the CyberPong3D_Starter folder, any other it doesnt let me. So Art, Materials, Scenes, Scripts and Settings folders I cant seem to be able to import, i dont know why...

[@this-is-gamedev]

Drag and Drop the *.unitypackage? Just check the Asset folders and subfolders to be sure?

[@oliverclothes]

There's a part of the video missing before 11:36. You are fixing fog. Then all of a sudden you say "Here we are, our first script has been created" - but you never show how to create the script. Or, if you mean that the script is already created for people watching the video in the download, then your download is broken. Because that file is not in the current download. I don't know if you made an update to the download and removed the script.

[@this-is-gamedev]

Yes this part was never in the video. It’s just an empty script called RacketController.

Does anybody know why nothing is glowing? Such as the ball and the arena.

There can be a few reasons: A) You have the standard render pipeline and the post processing stack/volume is missing B) The post processing volume is there but maybe there is no Bloom filter on it. And on the main Camera there is a checkbox “Post Processing” or so that you need to check

How to add score limits and stop the game and restart it

[@this-is-gamedev]

For score limits, you can do that in the score manager. When a goal happens, check if left/right score >= some value. To restart, you have to import UnityEngine.SceneManagement and use SceneManager to reload the current scene. Something like that: SceneManager.LoadSceneAsync(SceneManager.GetActiveScene().buildIndex); And in Unity, you have to add the scene to the Build. File->Build and drag and drop your scene asset into the box. Ouf, tough to explain all in writing :D a few google searches might help you :D (I am saving all comments for future tutorials) :D

So one just need to change Player's collider to match size of the Player. 27:11 - You may need to add "newDirection.y = 0f;". Otherwise the ball may go up. 42:17 - In my case: UI -> Legacy -> Text 57:13 - In my case it is impossible to apply the Smoke and Sparkle effects as both has "missing material" (pink problem) in Renderer section of Inspector. 01:00:41 - No music is available by link, so used some found on the internet :)
