Alive Studios - Build a cross platform AR Multiplayer game (Unity & Lightship full tutorial)
Thanks for watching my journey. I want to build the most exciting AR Experiences including games, movies and productive apps. My background is mainly in 2D / 3D Animation using Blender and After Effects, but I always loved the idea auf Augmented Reality. Furthermore I liked to code. So in late 2022 I decided to learn Unity and get deeper into AR Software Development. Let’s see how far we can come :)
This tutorial is about AR multiplayer using Unity & Lightship. The tutorial includes:
- Setting up Unity & Lightship for Multiplayer
- Creating a simple arcade shooting prototype in standard 3d, then bringing it in multiplayer
- How to use image colocalization
- Enable the player to create image targets for colocalization on runtime
It is suppose to show the basics of Shared AR Multiplayer experiences, by building a prototype. This prototype is however not suppose to be a “production ready“ game-
