    Do you cover animation and main menus? Or do you cover basic gameplay mechanics?

    Um whats the point of these, I watched a few and their not that appealing.. I guess they would be good for someone who is a complete noob...

    Your just a kid! I know you know your way around unity, but What exactly are you hoping to accomplish with these videos? I dont mean to sound like a a** but I think you should wait a year or so before you try to do a tutorial and then re do these. Without mistakes...

    Have you ever done anything? I am only trying to help, I can complete my own project, and teach. Mistakes? So your saying if I wait a year mistakes won't exist? Hhahaha. And yes, they are for people who are complete "noobs".

    Like to see how you would cover making a main menu and managing levels(selecting a level, unlocking). Don't see many youtube tutorials that cover that topic.

    Well I worked on the main menu and worked on LevelUp Script. Check out my channel. I'm working on it but I've been busy this past week.

    I just saw your first tutorial. I am a complete unity noob and found your tutorial very easy to follow. Looking forward to playing around after watching more of your work.

    Update: After Episode 50, I will be starting an advanced series which will be 51 to 100. It will contain advanced things like multiplayer, level editor, high scores, character creator.

    Cheers

    Lot's of videos yes, but I said I will be uploading single and short series videos when I find some more time. And it won't only be Unity.

    Cheers

    Ignore him....

    Nice to see these actually. With mistakes and all. Mistakes often help people learn better than just straight through. I haven't seen your vids yet but, do you explain your mistakes? Would be a nice change, than people glossing over them.

    Whenever I make a mistake in a video I show the views what I did wrong and how to fix it, I'm had many pms from people who like when I explain what I am doing. So yes I do!

    Cheers

    I love the tutorials from Khelton. Yes, they are for noobs (lucky) because Iam on of them and I just learned .js only by watching your tutorials. Thank you Khelton for your hard work!
