Thrusters move the player at an increased speed when the ‘Left Shift’ key is pressed and return the player to normal speed when the ‘Left Shift’ key is released. Receipt Write a condition that checks whether the left Shift key is pressed. If the left Shift key is depressed, increase the speed variable. Write a condition that checks if the left Shift key is pressed up. If the left Shift key is pressed up, set the speed variable to the default value.

Before you build your game in exclusive full-screen mode, you should first think about adding an exit feature to your application, otherwise there will be no way to exit the game or close the game window. This is easy to do, just use the condition and check the input key for “Escape” and then use the “Quit” method of the “Application” class:

The option to upload and host games to the web gives us the ability to share games easily. It’s certainly much easier to send someone a URL link than a large file that you have to download first before you can run it. To start publishing to the web, open “Build Settings” and change the platform to “WebGL”. Then click on “Switch platform to WebGL” and the project will recompile.

One of the best moments of game development is when we can finally build and test our game. To deploy a game in Unity to desktops (Windows, OSX, Linux) we must first open the build settings from “File/Build Settings” and select the platform.

To make a game a complete creation and add excitement to it, you need to add music to it. Fortunately, in Unity it is easy to add background music to your project.
