Unity Architecture Pattern: Structured Prefabs - This article shows a powerful Unity pattern that I’m calling Structured prefabs. Structured prefabs are a pattern I use to simplify prefab initialization and reduce bugs. They help to indicate the intention of the creator to other developers and lead to overall better maintainability.

This mechanic allows players to easily move their characters above and below different parts of the levels without the need to jump or fall. It introduces another layer of complexity to game environments. In this tutorial we are going to look into how we can create ladders and give our characters the ability to climb them.

The good, the gory, and the glory of publishing your game to multiple platforms – including Nintendo Switch - Whether you’re building an FPS multiplayer experience, an open-world RPG, or an adventure puzzle game, one thing is certain: You want to create dynamic and engaging experiences for your players. While specific platforms have traditionally been associated with different types of gaming, such as more casual games for mobile or FPS games on PC, developers no longer need to limit themselves. Today’s gaming experiences successfully extend across multiple platforms, which greatly expands audience reach.

Basics of White Noise! Random Numbers for Shaders and ProcGen in Unity | Game Dev Tutorial - Noise, in graphics programming, is a function that produces pseudorandom numbers based purely on its input. Usually, it follows some pattern, but white noise has no pattern! This makes it perfect to generate random offsets, normals, or colors for a variety of shader effects. It's also useful in procedural generation, to make sure the world persists over playthroughs. In this video, I explain how white noise works and show some of its practical uses.

What's the Point of Critical Hits? ~ Design Doc - Critical hits have been around for 50 years, but you'd be selling them short if you just think of critical hits as big damage numbers. Dragon Quest holds one of the first attempts to add basic crits to video games, but you can get a lot more creative with it. Games like Pokemon and Final Fantasy incorporated elements like status effects. Gears of War and Halo made the critical hit concept work in shooters, and Monster Hunter used the Negative Affinity system to really bend expectations. In between, there are countless indie games remixing and adapting the concept to create something new.

Unity simple CSV/object serialiser - I find it useful to be able to expose game parameters and other tweakables via CSV when prototyping so that non-coders can easily open them in a spreadsheet tool to experiment with game design without having to use Unity.
I also like to serialize values in a type safe manner, directly from/to my objects; much like JsonUtility works but with friendlier CSV (and no nested objects).
