Setting up the project

At this point, I assume that you have a fresh install of Unity and have started it up:

  1. With Unity started, go to File | New Project. Select a Project Location of your choice somewhere on your hard drive, and ensure that you have Setup defaults for set to 3D. Once completed, select Create. At this point, we will not need to import any packages, as we'll make everything from scratch. From there, if you see the Welcome to Unity pop up, feel free to close it out, as we won't be using it.
  2. Create the following folders just as we described in the previous chapters:
    • Prefabs
    • Scenes
    • Scripts
