Learn the fundamentals of programming State Machines in Unity with this new video break down!

This tutorial explains important concepts of the State Pattern, and how to use State Machines when programming! Today we will walk through an example project to showcase the benefits of using state, the state pattern and state machines in Unity!

This is the first episode in a new series of videos on this channel: Programming for Production. In this series, we'll take relatively complex software development topics and try to break them down in easytounderstand way. Let's take our programming skills to the next level!
