    Hey all,

    I was curious, I know it's possible to use Java for android programming in Unity, but can you use C# as well? My employer was hoping to have us use that language for my up-coming game.

    If it is possible to use C# for Android programming, could you point me in the right direction for good C#/C# with Android tutorials? Thanks!

    Anselm.

    You can program for Android in C#. You would not need very specific tutorials on C# for android, as most things you would just program like you would for any other platform Unity can build to. It is better to just start with tutorials for Unity in general and lookup the Android specific pages if you want details on how Unity works on Android.

    As a side note: you can't actually program Unity (Android or not) in Java. Unity supports what they call JavaScript, but is in fact barely related to the well known web language JavaScript at all.
