This document discusses Unity 3D from a developer's perspective. It describes Unity 3D's C++ engine and Mono scripting. It then explains how Unity 3D works using an entity component system, with entities containing components that are updated by systems in the game loop. Resources for learning more about Unity 3D are provided.

- 1. "it's time to kick ass and chew bubble gum...", a unity 3D live coding demo
- 3. Unity 3d from a dev point of view c++ engine scripting provided by Mono (open source .Net) c#, unityScript, boo
- 4. mono is actually an interesting choice mono 2.6 (approx .Net 3.5) code completion, refactoring tools (works best with visual studio) access to .Net (sockets, XML, etc.) LINQ
- 5. How does it work?
- 6. Once upon a time (old shool OO) everything inherits from a base gameobject results in a tree of doom (vertical complexity)
- 7. composition over inheritance Component Entity Systems configurable, reusable, better encapsulated
- 8. Entity just an id with a container of components in Unity they are called GameObjects
- 9. Component a minimal set of data needed for a specific purpose (SRP) an Object of Type MonoBehavior in Unity Transform, Material, Collider, and your own scripts
- 10. Systems single purpose function that traverse the entities, and update each component the game loop and its events
