Combine the best of two powerful tools, Blender 5 and Unity 6, to create stunning, real-time 3D games. This hands-on guide shows solo developers, artists, and small studios on how to unify modeling, animation, and scripting into a streamlined workflow. You’ll build a first-person exploration from scratch, designing locations, props, characters, and animations in Blender, then importing and optimizing them in Unity. Learn how to use Geometry Nodes, the Asset Browser, and procedural modeling to speed up production. Automate asset exports and scene updates using Python and implement game logic with C#. Whether you’re drafting scenes, creating worlds, or building assets for Unity, you’ll gain the technical skills to work smarter and faster. By the end, you'll have built an integrated pipeline and a playable level and acquired techniques that can be transferred across future projects. *Email sign-up and proof of purchase required
