One issue that is often encountered when building first person games is that the really close objects like weapons or hands will clip through nearby walls.

With the introduction of Shader Graph Unity also added support for Custom Nodes you can build yourself by creating custom CodeFunctionNode.

A demonstration of early flight mechanics in Asteroids VR that enable complex movement and 6 degrees of freedom.

There is still so much to learn in Unity’s new Shader Graph feature. In this video our focus is twofold.

I’d like to be able to connect to my servers without having to continuously enter my users password. We’re going to accomplish that by making use of an SSH Security Token.

A number of people have commented that we should be using step or smoothstep instead of some of the branching if/else blocks we’ve used in other videos (branches in shaders tend to perform worse than other functions).

Lets learn Shader Graph by building our ripple shader entirely within Shader Graph. The goal of this series is to reproduce the ripple shader we’ve been working on and compare/contrast the process of building the same shader in both tools that Unity makes available to you.

Welcome back! Let’s expand our Ripple Shader so it’s a bit easier to control and set the groundwork for some of the upcoming features we’ll want to build for it.

A Shadertoy shader that reduces the available colors to draw with. This demo reduces the normal range of colors per channel from 256 down to just 8 by using effectively separating each colors floating point value into different categories.

I’ve never used Unity’s Microphone API’s before. Let’s explore them together and get lost while we make something cool!

Lets make a new shader in Unity that sends a ripple out across an object to reveal the texture underneath it!

One of the big advantages of recording yourself building things is you get to watch it all back, a built in code review while you edit.

Lets build a basic colored voxel “chunk” from start to finish! We’ll focus on constructing three main components: a Chunk which stores data about the world, A ChunkGenerator which fills the Chunk with initial information (it builds the world) and a MeshGenerator that converts our Chunk into a Mesh you can see.

Time to make our ship go pew., pew! We’re going to add projectiles. We’ll build a set of components that can fire and build projectiles.

Lets spice up our our contrasting transition shader with an accent color that more clearly marks the border between one color and the next.

Continuing to build out our side scrolling shooter. We’re going to be building an effect that is essential to one of the main mechanics I am trying to build for this game.

We’re going to return to a project I built before starting this channel. Minefield, my take on Minesweeper for mobile.

I’ve been seeing a few example of uses for a cartoonish styled pipe that expands as something goes through it.

Visual Studio’s new Live Share feature makes it possible to collaboratively edit code, debug together and share terminals and locally hosted websites with your other teammates.

Lets make a visual upgrade for our basic flight controller we build in the last video. We’re going to make our ship rotate in the direction it is moving so its not just a cube moving up and down the screen!
