I came across a book named "Learning Design Patterns with Unity". This book can be considered as valuable assets to follow the best practices to start carrier as software developer understanding the best practise design patterns with relevant examples with game development skills. This book covers the design patterns used in our day to day practice in software development. where this design patterns consider as reusable solutions for designing of projects. Plunging further in the book it goes through numerous presentation based pattens that were provocative. I recommend this book to understand the design patterns in Software industry.

Harrison Ferrone has done a terrific job. I've used Design Patterns extensively, since back in by Java days with the "Gang of Four", and understand how designing and writing efficient reusable code, and adhering to best practices is such an important habit to get into.Harrisons book is excellently written and covers this subject well, and its great to see design patterns covered from a Unity framework perspective.Definitely recommend checking it out if coding design patterns are new to you, or if you fancy a recap with a Unity slant on the subject.

This book breaks down many important game development techniques. Many of which I have heard before but never worked with. This does a good job of introducing a design pattern, then dives deeper into making it its most efficient / clean implementation.The book offers sample projects to download. I never used those but was able to follow along with the sample Unity code and setup regardless.I now have integrated many of these techniques into my usual game dev process. Great book for learning at an intermediate level.

I would highly recommend this book for Unity and C# developers seeking to enhance their software architecture skills! The book excels in breaking down complex design patterns into understandable concepts through clear explanations, practical examples, and useful visuals.It covers a range of patterns, including creational, behavioral, and structural, providing insights on when and how to use them effectively. It is well-written and accessible for anyone looking to improve their code.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published.
