Learn how to create and use Scriptable Objects to design flexible systems, implement an event system and solve common programming problems in Unity.
Generating mazes similar to Wolfenstein 3D in Unity with a simple C# script. This allows the generation of both actual mazes as well as more general maps with small or large rooms depending on a single parameter.
The Diffusion Aggregation algorithm is a versatile and simple to implement algorithm which can be used for both generation of long winding maps with lots of corridors and subdiving or partitioning a grid into different sections. This algorithm can serve as an alternative to other algorithms, such as Drunkard or Random Walk for map generation, or Voronoi Diagrams for partitioning a grid.
Learn how to replace the default system cursor in Unity using either the Project Settings, or through the usage of a Canvas element with a custom script to get better control over cursor size and enable the usage of shaders
Setting up our Patrolling System by creating a linked list of Waypoint Nodes and explaining ways to expand it.
Learn how to handle Player input for Movement with an Animated Sprite using a State machine
Fixing issues with missing Editor, CustomEditorAttribute or CustomEditor namespaces or types when creating a build in Unity
Using the Random Walk / Drunkard Walk to generate interesting 2D maps in Unity. The algorithm is well-suited for natural and chaotic looking formations such as caves and guarantees the generated map is fully connected.

Sharing simple scripts for camera, lights management, debugging...
Implementing a camera that follows the player around the map and gets offset near boundaries to avoid showing out of bounds part of the map.
Implementing billboarding, camera position checks and forward checks to select a suitable sprite from a given tilesheet/spritesheet/spritemap. This enables us to only use quads and avoid manipulating the sprites through script, which should increase performance for scenes with plenty of background characters.
Implementing both billboarding and scrolling the tileset/tilemap of the character to update the face being displayed according to the camera's position
Combining distributions (Normal, Gamma, Uniform...) to fake real-world height data and sampling them using Perlin or Simplex Noise.
Specifying Animation Curves and Cycle Duration for x, y, z position manipulation to create varied movement for an object.
