Question by AerialSnack · Sep 30, 2015 at 12:43 PM · c#unity 52dlearningbook

Books for learning C# by programming 2D games?

I have found plenty of books teaching C# by programming Unity games in 3D, and plenty of tutorial books on making a 2D game. However, all the 2D books I have found expect you to already know C#. I don't really have much interest in making 3D games, so I was wondering if anyone knew any books that taught C# through 2D games. Thanks!

The concepts are the same. You can learn 'in 3D' and code for 2D just fine.

Once you have learned how to read the entries of the Scripting API and apply them in code the virtual world is your pixellated oyster.

hi @AerialSnack, you maybe want to try this book. It learns you basics of C# programming language, and it's free for download. I'm not sure if that can help you for 2D games, but if you can learn C# you can do whatever you want.
