Create a Game from Scratch with this Tanks! Tutorial Asset Pack
Getting started can be the most difficult part of the dev process but it is definitely not the only. The long haul between inception and completion has worn many a developer down with nothing but a half completed game and sadness to show for it.
One way to combat this is to have a firm grasp of the trip you are starting and this Tutorial Asset pack from Unity is a phenomenal start.
The completed game is a fun little battle arena, a couch shooter with cartoonish tanks shooting up a base and a friend.
As far as set pieces go the scene is cute, stylized and well made. The tanks look like stylized army men tanks, think Sarges Heros era.
Since it is a full game, however small, it has a huge amount of assets for you to jump into and dig around in.
To help you navigate this heaping pile of assets the team over at Unity have put together a full tutorial to go with it, check it out here: https://unity3d.com/learn/tutorials/s/tanks-tutorial
The main thrust of this asset pack is on the learning, how to use the tools you have to assemble a pile of assets into a focused finished game. I love the design of it and the philosophy behind it, taking a simple idea from inception to completion and showing us how it works every step of the way.
