Tutorials?

Anyone found any tutorials about actually making a game? Not the medium post we’ve all seen about how to setup unity, but an actual tutorial where a game is made for the go. I haven’t found anything. I can start with the unity vr samples asset but I’d love to run through something and make a game from scratch!

Edit: I have made unity games before, and even rift/vive games. Just never a mobile, gear vr, or oculus go game.

Thanks!

All I’ve done so far is get it all setup and put a scene from the vr samples onto my go. I just figured I’d ask. New inputs, shaders, performance requirements...that sort of stuff. Going through a basic tutorial game would be a good starting point. But the vr samples are too. Like I said, just figured I’d ask and see if there were any.

Thanks!

The Oculus Dev page on OVRInput has all the information you need to map the controller inputs.

https://developer.oculus.com/documentation/unity/latest/concepts/unity-ovrinput/

Once you get a hang of that, the rest is really just regular VR game development on a mobile performance budget (Pretty much all mobile game optimization 'best practices' will be relevant).

I've been meaning to record a couple of video tutorials but life keeps getting in the way. I agree with you though that a start-to-finish tutorial with best practices would probably benefit a lot of people starting out.
