First game/project

I feel like this is the most generic question, but what should my first game/project be if I am just starting out with game development? I have watched a few CodeMonkey tutorials and have a small understanding of what Unity is. Probably a 0% chance of it happening in the next 5 years, but my end goal would be creating a small RPG (and yes, I know this is too big of a scope for a solo developer, etc.).

Need help making enemies explode and bones fly out that have physics. ( player touches and they move )

Hey all! I need help with a problem. So I kill enemies and I want on their death for them to explode and bones fly out. I already have the bones objects, and they already die, etc etc.



The only thing I am missing is how to make it to where on death the bones fly out of them and hit the ground. I want them to be able to be moved. So when the Player walks over them they kinda roll around and move with the player if that makes sense.



I think this might be doable with the particle system maybe? Any guidance would be awesome!

We're working on the temple for our game, inspired by the ancient Indian architecture. How does it look?

Classical Bharat consisted of architectural marvels with intricate carvings. We've tried to portray it through our game, in our art style.

How is it looking?😁

Writing a file to an easy-to-access location.

I am writing a 2D app in Unity, and I'd like to be able to export CSV data to somewhere the user can easily access. I don't want users to have to dig through to the 'application.persistentDataPath' location. I have tried the "Downloads" folder as some have suggested but, as expected, access is denied. Is there any clever work-around to this?

How do you think Habbo hotel did their modular clothing?

I heard something about Habbo hotel moving over the Unity in 2020. And I'm really curious how do you think that Habbo hotel did their modular clothing. They have an expansive character creator for a 2D pixelart game, and as somebody looking to get started on a 2D pixelart game of my own with a modular clothing / armor system, I would love to know how they did it.


My first guess is that an animater has been drawing every animation for every piece of clothing by hand. But there are so many variations?

Animating Walk Cycle RESIZING???? For no reason????

Hello, I am VERY new to Unity and also new to coding. I am trying to get my player to walk around with walking animations. For some reason when I go to make the animations even though the sprite sheet components for the animation are the same size as my idle character sprite and the size that I want them, whenever I put them into the animation thing they get bigger??? By a sizable amount and then it makes the idle base one the same size and I can't figure out how to change it and I just have to keep redoing it! Please help I bed /(T-T)/

Please help cant change X velocity

I am making my first game (2D platformer) this is the code I am using for movement I am currently working on wallJumping but when I am on the wall the X velocity just wont change the Y has no problem so it is clearly executing the line but the X velocity is just not changing.
