Hi 
I released a video on how to create a simple audio system that lets you tag elements on your UI two days ago. Hope, this will help if any of you are looking to add more polish to your menus 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyY8QBWdmmk
Learn how to create a simple system that plays sounds when you interact with your UI in Unity. This tutorial explains how to create a system to tag elements that should emit sound with a central manager keeping track of every interaction type and sound to play.

Hey all,
I made a post on setting up a URP Renderer Feature using RenderGraph that let's you use a "Scene Color" texture that supports transparent objects.
Works in Unity 6+
Code included as always 🙂

Hey everyone! 👋
I just shared a new video where I recreate the multi-world split effect from Split Fiction in Unity. It took quite some time to figure out, but I learned a lot about using the stencil buffer and multiple rendering techniques to achieve these illusions.
If you’re curious about advanced rendering tricks or just want to see how it works behind the scenes, feel free to check it out. Would love to hear your thoughts and ideas on it!
Here’s the link:
https://youtu.be/PgCiQHmZFBE
Hope you find it useful or inspiring for your projects!
What if you could see multiple worlds on the same screen at the same time?
In this video, I recreate one of SplitFiction’s mechanics in Unity: merging multiple 3D worlds seamlessly in a single camera view.
Check this out!
Please drop a comment, we'd really appreciate any feedback or thoughts!

Hi everybody 
New tutorial is all about creating a tab menu system. It's super versatile and easy to create - in my version, the tabs stay highlighted, too! (Because having the highlight go away just because you clicked somewhere else feels stupid.)
It covers three parts:
- setting up the layout in the inspector
- writing the script
- making sure tabs stay highlighted
Learn how to create a simple tab menu, in which the tabs actually stay highlighted! This tab system is simple to build and implement and works with lots of functionality already built-in to Unity.

Great morning all! Today I launched a video explaining how to use the Animation Rigging package to get perfectly aligned animations using the Chain IK Constraint. Commonly with "baked" animations, they won't quite align to your gameplay. Using tools like the Animation Rigging package can help you get those perfect animations, every time! https://youtu.be/kZDg4Y5rnX4

Hi 👋
I've read a couple of times over the last few weeks that people have been looking for asset recommendations. Today, I released a video in which I show which ones are in my default toolbox and where/how I'm typically using them. Hope, this helps those who are looking for useful tools to add to their arsenal!

Hi everybody =)
Twice a year, I setup a new template project to use going forward. I tune core settings, setup assets, create basic style sheets, color palettes and workflow-specific layouts (and more!). If you ever thought about creating your own template, I think you'll find something useful in the way I do it!
Create a project to use as a template in your future projects! I go over setting up workspace layouts, settings and preferences, font and color palette setup, critical assets and more. This workflow has supported me in creating projects for multiple years.

Hi everybody 👋
Are you randomly clicking on Layout Group settings, hoping to magically find the setting you need?
By how often I have been asked to cover the UI layout system, you are far from alone - and I know the feeling, I've been there 💛
That is why I created an in-depth walk-through about the whole system, covering Layout Groups, Layout Elements and Content Size Fitters in detail: How (and where!) to use them, what their settings do and interact with one another, as well as how to troubleshoot when things don't go as planned.
This topic is now also the content of the 6th ebook on UGUI systems I've released - you can find those on my itch page.
I sincerely hope that this video will make understanding and working with the Layout System easier and much more enjoyable. If there are any questions, feel free to ask!
Learn how Unity Layout Group (Vertical/Horizontal/Grid), Layout Element, and Content Size Fitter work together! Understand what to use, when, and why and become familiar with padding, spacing, preferred/min/flexible sizes. After this, you will build responsive UI without guesswork and headaches! We’ll also look at common pitfalls (e.g., Conten...
Hi everybody 👋
I recently released two new tutorial videos that go hand-in-hand with the layout groups explained video:
How to create a dynamically resizing text box, for example for dialog windows or tooltips, and one that focuses on how to setup images correctly so they can be used as non-stretchy background images wherever you need to have a flexible container size.
I hope, you'll enjoy these two! (And if you haven't, maybe check out the layout groups one, the feedback has been amazing 💛)
Again, if there are questions, feel free to ask!

Hey everyone,
In case you missed my video - Unity actually have an official Toon Shader, completely FREE on GitHub, that you might not even know about! (And it works across all pipelines too!)
The Unity Toon Shader (UTS3) is a set of toon shaders designed to meet the needs of creators working on cel-shaded 3D-CG animations.
The Unity Toon Shader is compatible with all render pipelines: the Built-in Render Pipeline, the Universal Render Pipeline (URP), and the High Definition Render Pipeline (HDRP). However, there are some differences...
Hi everybody 👋
I released a video about working with Masks for UI elements, going over the build-in ones like RectMask2D and Mask, but also showing how to create soft masks and inverted ones in Shadergraph and how to change settings inside of them via script.
I hope, you'll enjoy it!
https://youtu.be/8IiSiXM0L-M
RectMask2D and Mask components "cut out" part of your content to display them inside a specific shape. But did you know it is super easy to create a soft mask? Or how to create an inverted mask for UI elements? With just a bit of Shadergraph magic, we create them in just a few moments. Super simple!

Hi everbody 👋
Shadergraph for UI is super fun. My newest tutorial will teach you some basics and explain, how you can create four different effects to use in your own game - a greyscale effect, a tinting effect that gives a monochrome look, an animated gradient as well as a full gradient.
This tutorial also covers how to change values of materials via script, how to create new instances and how to display a gradient in the inspector even though the shader won't let you.

I released my last tutorial for this year today and it covers a topic I've seen people frustrated about a lot: Creating lists (you can scroll through) which have flexible entries that need to expand based on their contents.
Please stop writing 500-line-strong custom solutions to this. Just by working with the layout system, we can achieve our goal 💛
This one is not just showing you how to do it, but teaches you a few parts of the system you might not have known/seen before (if you haven't watched my deep dive into the layout system before, that is). I hope, this helps you in needing less tutorials like this in the future =)

Hi everybody 👋
In my newest tutorial, I go into how to create a flipping animation for UI elements, building it as a component to customize and attach to whatever you need to flip.
It's a customizable component that works with timings and an animation curve to add character to whatever you need to flip on your UI. For example, you can:
- Click to flip to the opposite side vertically/horizontally
- Press to flip over, then flip back on release
- Same but for hover
- Continuously flip around a given axis
- Define which button to react to (left/middle/right)
- Define which side should be show at start
- Set time for the animation
- Set a delay between constant flips if so desired
- And set a rule to where to flip to when the element is being interacted with (always the opposite, always to A, always to B)
I really enjoy crafting components like this and have had them in my toolbox for months after I first created my tutorials on adding Squash and Stretch to elements and animation tweening between points. Hope, you'll enjoy this one!
